Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of gallium nitride single crystal growth, and particularly relates to a method and device for removing parasitic polycrystals on a HVPE-GaN substrate carrier. BACKGROUND

[0002] Gallium nitride (GaN) is a representative of the third generation of semiconductor materials, and is widely used in optoelectronics, power electronics and other fields due to its wide band gap (3.4 eV), high electron mobility and excellent thermal conductivity. At present, hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) is the mainstream technology for growing gallium nitride single crystals, which is usually carried out in a substrate carrier at normal pressure and about 1000 DEG C. However, during the growth process, gallium nitride polycrystalline particles are generated on the surface of the graphite substrate carrier due to the side reaction of the reaction gas (such as NH3 and GaCl). These parasitic polycrystals not only reduce the quality of the single crystal, but also cause the substrate carrier to break due to thermal stress accumulation, greatly increasing the production cost.

[0003] In the prior art, polycrystal removal mainly depends on mechanical scraping or acid washing, but the former easily damages the surface of the substrate carrier, and the latter has the risk of environmental pollution. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an efficient, environmentally friendly and non-destructive removal method. SUMMARY

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the application provides a method and device for removing parasitic polycrystals on a substrate carrier for HVPE growth of gallium nitride single crystals to solve the problem of parasitic polycrystals on the graphite substrate carrier.

[0005] A method for removing parasitic polycrystals on a HVPE-GaN substrate carrier, the substrate carrier is placed in a reaction furnace, first inert gas is introduced, then hydrogen gas is introduced, and then heated to 1000-1050 DEG C for reaction to remove the parasitic polycrystals on the substrate carrier.

[0006] Preferably, the reaction furnace is a high-temperature tube furnace.

[0007] Preferably, the reaction furnace is preheated to 500-600 DEG C and maintained for 15-20 minutes to remove water vapor and impurities that may exist in the furnace chamber.

[0008] Preferably, the hydrogen gas flow is 10-15 L / min.

[0009] Preferably, the inert gas flow is 5-8 L / min.

[0010] Preferably, the inert gas is introduced for 3-5 minutes, and then hydrogen gas is introduced.

[0011] Preferably, the heating rate is 5-8 DEG C / min.

[0012] Preferably, the reaction time is 3-6 h.

[0013] Preferably, after the reaction is completed, the furnace cavity of the reaction furnace is naturally cooled, and the cooling rate is controlled at 3-5 ℃ / min; when the temperature of the furnace cavity is reduced to 300-350 ℃, the inert gas and hydrogen gas are stopped; when the temperature is reduced to 50-100 ℃, the substrate carrier is taken out of the reaction furnace.

[0014] A device for removing parasitic polycrystal on HVPE-GaN substrate carrier, comprising a control assembly, a furnace body, a gas inlet assembly and a tail gas discharge pipe; the control assembly is electrically connected with the gas inlet assembly, the gas inlet assembly is connected with the furnace body through a pipeline; the tail gas discharge pipe is arranged on the furnace body; the furnace body comprises, from inside to outside, a heat preservation layer, a resistance heating body heating layer and a furnace cavity; the front end of the furnace cavity is provided with a furnace cavity door; a machine table and a large graphite frame are arranged at the bottom of the furnace cavity, a machine table graphite frame is arranged on the machine table, the gas inlet assembly comprises an inert gas bottle connected with a first gas inlet pipe and a hydrogen gas bottle connected with a second gas inlet pipe, and the first gas inlet pipe and the second gas inlet pipe are both connected with the rear end of the furnace cavity through a pipeline. Preferably, the tail gas discharge pipe is connected with the rear end of the furnace cavity.

[0015] Preferably, the first gas inlet pipe, the second gas inlet pipe and the tail gas discharge pipe are all made of aluminum alloy.

[0016] The machine table graphite frame and the large graphite frame are both used for processing polycrystal on graphite substrate carriers, quartz materials or silicon carbide materials of different sizes.

[0017] The furnace cavity is heated by a resistance heating body, and the target temperature range is 1000-1050 ℃, and a heat preservation layer is arranged around the furnace cavity to maintain the temperature of the furnace cavity.

[0018] In the present application, the large graphite frame is mainly used for removing polycrystal on large devices such as quartz cavities, and the machine table graphite frame is used for removing polycrystal on small devices such as cover and carrier disc substrate carriers. Since the large graphite frame is close to the gas inlet pipe at the tail of the device, the gas concentration is higher, and when a device with polycrystal and large volume is placed, the contact between the carrier and the gas is more uniform, which can significantly improve the removal rate. The machine table graphite frame is used for placing substrate carriers (small devices) covered with polycrystal, and does not need too high gas concentration, and too high concentration will damage the furnace cavity wall and the surface of the carrier.

[0019] The present application uses a graphite frame to place devices used for HVPE-GaN growth, which can avoid the cracking of the device caused by the large thermal capacity difference between the substrate carrier and other materials.

[0020] Advantages The traditional mechanical scraping and pickling method has obvious disadvantages in removing the parasitic polycrystal on the substrate carrier for growing gallium nitride single crystal by HVPE. The mechanical scraping can damage the surface of the substrate carrier and affect its service life. The pickling method can remove the polycrystal, but has the risk of environmental pollution. The removal device and working method of the present application have obvious advantages. The device uses a thermal chemical reaction to accurately control the temperature, gas composition and processing time, can efficiently and completely remove the parasitic polycrystal, avoid damage to the substrate carrier, eliminate the environmental pollution problem from the source, and can also inhibit the secondary deposition of the polycrystal. The device is suitable for various materials and different size substrate carriers, greatly improves the quality and efficiency of gallium nitride single crystal growth, and reduces the production cost.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The present application aims at the problem that the parasitic polycrystal on the HVPE substrate carrier is difficult to remove efficiently, and provides a removal method based on thermal chemical reaction, which realizes complete removal of the polycrystal and inhibits its secondary deposition by precisely controlling temperature, gas composition and processing time, thereby prolonging the service life of the substrate carrier.

[0023] Embodiment 1 A device for removing parasitic polycrystal on a substrate carrier for HVPE growth of gallium nitride single crystal is a high-temperature heating tube furnace, comprising a control assembly 1, a furnace body 2, a gas inlet assembly 3 and a tail gas discharge pipe 4; the control assembly 1 is electrically connected with the gas inlet assembly 3, the gas inlet assembly 3 is connected with the furnace body 2 through a pipeline, the tail gas discharge pipe 4 is arranged on the furnace body 2; the furnace body 2 comprises, from inside to outside, a heat preservation layer 21, a resistance heating body heating layer 22 and a furnace cavity 23; the furnace cavity 23 is provided with a furnace cavity door 231 at the front end, the furnace cavity 23 is provided with a machine table 24 and a large graphite rack 25 at the bottom, the machine table 24 is provided with a machine table graphite rack 26, the gas inlet assembly 3 comprises an inert gas bottle 32 connected with a first gas inlet pipe 31 and a hydrogen gas bottle 34 connected with a second gas inlet pipe 33, the first gas inlet pipe 31 and the second gas inlet pipe 33 are both connected with the rear end of the furnace cavity 23 through a pipeline. The tail gas discharge pipe 4 is connected with the rear end of the furnace cavity 23.

[0024] The first gas inlet pipe 31, the second gas inlet pipe 33 and the tail gas discharge pipe 4 are all made of aluminum alloy.

[0025] A method for removing polycrystal using the above device for removing parasitic polycrystal on a substrate carrier for HVPE growth of gallium nitride single crystal comprises the following steps: (1) Ensure that the resistance heating body heating layer 22, the gas inlet assembly 3, the tail gas discharge pipe 4 and the like are undamaged, and that the furnace cavity door 231 is well sealed. Connect the inert gas bottle 32 and the hydrogen gas bottle 34 to the corresponding first gas inlet pipe 31 and second gas inlet pipe 33 respectively, and check whether the gas delivery pipeline is tightly connected and free of leakage. Turn on the power supply and the related control assembly 1 of the device, preheat the furnace cavity 23, slowly raise the temperature of the furnace cavity 23 to 500-600℃, and maintain for 15-20 minutes to remove the water vapor and impurities possibly existing in the furnace cavity 23.

[0026] (2) After the furnace cavity 23 is preheated and the temperature is lowered by 50-100℃, open the furnace cavity door 231, and carefully place the substrate carrier with polycrystal distributed after HVPE growth on the large graphite rack 25 or the machine table graphite rack 26 (select the appropriate graphite rack according to the size of the substrate carrier), and ensure that the substrate carrier is stably placed to avoid shaking or displacement during the processing. After the substrate carrier is placed, close the furnace cavity door 231 to ensure that the furnace cavity 23 is well sealed to prevent gas leakage.

[0027] (3) Set the flow rate of the inert gas (N2or Ar) introduced through the first gas inlet pipe 31 to be 5-8 L / min and the flow rate of the hydrogen gas (H2) introduced through the second gas inlet pipe 33 to be 10-15 L / min by controlling the components 1. First, open the valve of the first gas inlet pipe 31 to fill the furnace cavity 23 with the inert gas and to expel the air in the furnace cavity 23 to avoid the reaction between the impurities in the air and the reaction gas and to affect the treatment effect. After continuously introducing the inert gas for 3-5 minutes, slowly open the valve of the second gas inlet pipe 33 to mix the hydrogen gas and the inert gas uniformly.

[0028] (4) Turn on the resistance heating body heating layer 22 and increase the temperature of the furnace cavity 23 from the current temperature to the target temperature interval of 1000-1050℃ at a temperature increasing rate of 5-8℃ / min. During the temperature increasing process, closely observe the temperature change of the furnace cavity 23 to ensure the stability of the temperature increasing rate and to avoid the temperature fluctuation affecting the treatment effect. When the temperature of the furnace cavity 23 reaches the target temperature, keep the temperature constant for 4-6 hours. During this period, the hydrogen gas and the gallium nitride polycrystal have a thermal chemical reaction to convert the gallium nitride polycrystal into gaseous substances which are discharged from the furnace cavity 23 through the tail gas discharge pipe 4, thereby realizing the removal of the parasitic polycrystal. At the same time, the inert gas plays a role of protective atmosphere to prevent the substrate carrier from being oxidized at high temperature and to help maintain the stability of the air pressure in the furnace cavity 23 and to promote the smooth discharge of the gaseous reaction products.

[0029] (5) After the reaction time ends, turn off the resistance heating body heating layer 22 and stop heating. Let the furnace cavity 23 naturally cool down at a cooling rate of 3-5℃ / min. When the temperature of the furnace cavity 23 drops to 300-350℃, close the valves of the first gas inlet pipe 31 and the second gas inlet pipe 33 and stop introducing the reaction gas. Continue to wait until the temperature of the furnace cavity 23 drops to 50-100℃, open the furnace cavity door 231 and carefully take out the treated substrate carrier using a high-temperature-resistant tool.

[0030] (6) After the substrate carrier is taken out, clean the furnace cavity 23 and remove the impurities and reaction products remaining in the furnace cavity 23 using a graphite brush or other suitable tools.

[0047] 2. Treatment process When the temperature in the furnace chamber 23 reached 950°C, the temperature was maintained for 3 hours. During this period, the temperature, pressure and gas flow data in the furnace chamber 23 were recorded every 15 minutes to ensure that the parameters were stable.
