Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing p-type 4H-SiC by co-doping IVB group atoms and aluminum. According to the preparation method, the aluminum atoms and IVB group atoms are doped into 4H-SiC, so that the ionization energy of aluminum in a silicon carbide crystal is effectively reduced, and the preparation of low-resistance p-type 4H-SiC is realized. After the IVB group atoms are doped, an empty impurity orbital e energy level is introduced to form effective coulomb repulsion with an e orbital occupied by 3 / 4 of Al, so that the ionization energy of Al impurities is reduced. The doping concentration of the IVB group atoms is ensured to be more than 1017 cm <-3 >, and the doping concentration of the aluminum atoms is ensured to be about 1020 cm <-3 >. The problem that the ionization energy of the aluminum atoms in 4H-SiC is high is solved, the effective concentration of carriers in silicon carbide is increased, the resistivity of the 4H-SiC silicon carbide crystal is reduced; and the method has important significance on manufacturing of various electronic devices in the field of power electronics.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of silicon carbide crystal growth, and in particular relates to a method for co-doping IVB (Ti / Zr / Hf) and aluminum to prepare low-resistance p-type 4H-SiC. Background technique [0002] Silicon carbide (SiC) can meet the new requirements of modern society for high temperature, high power, high voltage, high frequency and radiation resistance due to its outstanding advantages such as higher saturation drift speed and higher critical breakdown voltage, and has small size, pollution Economic and environmental benefits such as less operating loss. Silicon carbide is expected to be used in power devices, high-frequency devices, high-temperature operating devices, and the like. Silicon carbide power semiconductor devices began to be developed in the 1970s. After 30 years of accumulation, silicon carbide SBD devices were commercialized in 2001, and silicon carbide MOSFET devices were commercialized in 2010. Current silicon...
