Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of silicon carbide single crystal production equipment technology, and specifically discloses a manufacturing apparatus for silicon carbide single crystal production. Background Technology
[0002] Silicon carbide single crystals are the core substrate material for the third-generation semiconductor industry. They possess outstanding properties such as a large bandgap, high breakdown field strength, excellent thermal conductivity, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, and radiation resistance. They are widely used in high-tech fields such as new energy vehicles, photovoltaic and wind power, rail transportation, aerospace, high-end radio frequency devices, and power semiconductor chips. Single crystal growth and preparation is the core key process in the industrial production of silicon carbide. The purity of the growth environment, the accuracy of process adaptation, and the stability of equipment operation directly determine the crystal integrity, defect density, forming regularity, and yield of silicon carbide single crystals. These factors are crucial for ensuring the performance stability and lifespan of downstream semiconductor devices.
[0003] The manufacturing equipment for silicon carbide single crystal production is a specialized precision device adapted to the high-temperature growth, atmosphere control, molding preparation, and finished product removal of silicon carbide single crystals. Relying on the functional structure of high-temperature crystal growth, closed atmosphere protection, seed crystal assembly, and finished product output, it is suitable for the precision mass production of large-size, low-defect silicon carbide single crystals. It is widely used in third-generation semiconductor material production bases, semiconductor chip manufacturing enterprises, and new material research and development platforms. It can provide a stable, clean, and controllable preparation environment for silicon carbide single crystal growth and is the core industrial equipment for realizing the large-scale, high-quality, and precision production of silicon carbide single crystals.
[0004] In the industrial-scale production of silicon carbide single crystals, the adaptability of seed crystal installation, the convenience of finished product unloading, and the ability to control furnace atmosphere replacement and inert gas supply directly affect the matching degree of single crystal growth process, crystal quality, and overall production efficiency. Currently, traditional manufacturing equipment used in silicon carbide single crystal production faces critical problems that urgently need to be addressed in actual mass production and trial production. Existing silicon carbide single crystal growth equipment has a relatively rigid structural design, with most seed crystal cylinders using a fixed installation structure. This makes it impossible to flexibly adjust the seed crystal's height within the container according to the single crystal growth process requirements. The seed crystal position cannot be dynamically fine-tuned, making it difficult to adapt to the growth rhythm and forming space requirements of the silicon carbide single crystal forming process. This easily leads to deviations in single crystal formation morphology, unstable crystal quality, and problems such as crystallization defects and irregular forming, seriously affecting the finished product quality and yield of silicon carbide single crystals. Meanwhile, traditional equipment has a simple single-crystal material handling structure after forming, lacking a dedicated rotating material discharge structure. The forming of single crystals mostly relies on manual material handling, which is cumbersome and not only easily causes single crystal damage from impacts, but also significantly reduces the overall preparation efficiency. At the same time, the gas replacement structure of traditional silicon carbide preparation equipment is imperfect, which cannot achieve efficient and thorough exhaust of air inside the furnace. The equipment has poor air exchange effect, and air, oxygen and other impurities are easy to remain in the heating tank. Under the high-temperature preparation environment, they are very likely to react with the raw materials, resulting in oxidation defects and impurity inclusions in the single crystals. This seriously damages the pure growth environment required for single crystal forming. In addition, traditional equipment cannot automatically, accurately and continuously replenish inert protective gas, making it difficult to maintain a stable inert gas protective atmosphere. The automation level of gas environment control is low and the adaptability is poor. Therefore, a manufacturing device for silicon carbide single crystal production was invented to address these shortcomings. Summary of the Invention

[0048] Appendix Figure 7 To the attached Figure 12 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, a drive motor 413 is fixedly installed on the second support plate 412.

The drive motor 413 is fixedly installed between the first support plate 411 and the second support plate 412. A drive turntable 414 is fixedly installed on the output end of the drive motor 413.

The moving rod 401 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the second sliding groove 418. The rotation of the output end of the drive motor 413 can drive the blower piston rod 406 and the suction piston rod 409 to slide back and forth along the inner walls of the blower rod 405 and the suction pipe 408, respectively.
[0049] The working principle of this invention is as follows: (a) Before operation, rotate the mounting cylinder 310. The second rotating plate 311 drives the release block 316 to move, thereby aligning the release block 316 with the slot 314. At this time, the second rotating plate 311, the upper fixing plate 318, the mounting block 322 and the seed crystal cylinder 323 can be taken out from the heating barrel 201. Then pull the lifting shaft 309. When the positioning slot shaft 308 is inserted into the insertion hole 317, the second limiting ring 321 is in contact with the first rotating plate 202. At this time, silicon raw material and flux are fed into the second limiting ring 321 through the positioning groove 315, and the seed crystal is placed into the seed crystal cylinder 323. Then, the second rotating plate 311 is put back in its original position and rotated. The position of the second rotating plate 311 is limited by the first limiting ring 304. At this time, the seed crystal cylinder 323 is in contact with the bottom of the inner wall of the second limiting ring 321.
[0050] (II) Subsequently, the drive motor 413 starts, driving the second drive shaft 415 to move via the drive turntable 414. This, in turn, drives the moving rod 401 to slide back and forth along the inner wall of the moving groove 402 via the T-shaped rod 416. This, in turn, moves the air-blowing piston rod 406 and the air-evacuating piston rod 409, thereby simultaneously expelling air from the heating tank 201 through the air-evacuating piston rod 409 and sending inert gas from the air-blowing box 404 into the heating tank 201. After the drive motor 413 has been working for 15 minutes... The drive motor 413 stops working, and then the connecting block 410 is removed from the moving rod 401 and fixed to the upper top plate 102 by fastening bolts. After that, the drive motor 413 continues to work. At this time, the inert gas cannot flow out from the suction piston rod 409. The drive motor 413 stops working after working for 10 minutes. Then the temperature control device 419 is started. The temperature control device 419 heats the heating tank 201, thereby melting the raw material into a silicon-carbon mixed solution.
[0051] (iii) After heating for 10 minutes, the temperature inside the heating barrel 201 is adjusted by the temperature control device 419. At this time, single crystals are gradually precipitated on the surface of the seed crystal. Then, the lifting cylinder 302 drives the seed crystal barrel 323 to rise slowly, thereby achieving uniform distribution of single crystals on the outer surface of the seed crystal barrel 323.
[0052] (iv) After working for 20 minutes, the temperature control device 419 stops working, causing the temperature inside the heating barrel 201 and the holding barrel 312 to gradually decrease. After cooling for 25 minutes, the mounting barrel 310 is rotated, and the second rotating plate 311 drives the release block 316 to move, thereby aligning the release block 316 with the slot 314. At this time, the second rotating plate 311, the upper fixing plate 318, the mounting block 322 and the seed crystal barrel 323 can be removed from the heating barrel 201. Then, the positioning clamping plate 207 is moved away from the heating barrel 201. Then, the rotating handle 205 is rotated. When the first rotating plate 202 is in contact with the first positioning plate 208, the rotating handle 205 is stopped. At this time, the residual material in the second limiting ring 321 is discharged through the positioning groove 315.
