Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of silicon carbide single crystal furnaces, and in particular to a novel silicon carbide liquid phase single crystal furnace. Background Art
[0002] Silicon carbide single crystal furnace is a key equipment for producing silicon carbide (SiC) single crystal material, which is very important in semiconductor and high temperature applications due to its high melting point, high hardness, high corrosion resistance and excellent electronic properties, such as in power electronics, optoelectronics and microwave components.
[0003] The first step in the silicon carbide industry chain is to grow silicon carbide ingots. Among the material types of silicon carbide, there are two main types: p-type and n-type. They differ in their conductive properties and are suitable for different applications: in p-type ingots, electron vacancies (i.e. holes) are the main carriers; in n-type ingots, electrons are the main carriers.
[0004] At present, the mainstream method for growing silicon carbide single crystals on the market is physical vapor transport (PVT), which can achieve the growth of eight-inch silicon carbide single crystals in China. The PVT method uses materials such as silicon (Si) to sublimate into Si vapor at high temperature, and the Si vapor is transferred to the seed crystal bonded to the crucible cover, and then crystallized to form silicon carbide crystals. SiC crystals grown by the PVT method have defects such as microtubes, which have an adverse effect on the performance of later processed devices. If you want to grow doped SiC single crystals by the PVT method, you need to add doping elements to the raw materials. At present, the technology of growing N-type SiC crystals by the PVT method is relatively mature, and when preparing p-type SiC substrates by the PVT method, Al4C3 needs to be added to provide Al source. However, since the Al source has a high saturated vapor pressure in a high temperature environment, it is difficult to obtain continuous and stable p-type doping, that is, the main disadvantage of using the PVT method is that it is difficult to obtain p-type ingots.
[0005] In the process of growing SiC crystals, the liquid phase method (also known as the top seed solution method, TSSG) is a method for growing SiC single crystals that has developed rapidly in recent years. TSSG melts the Si raw material contained in the crucible, melts it into a solution at high temperature, and uses the solubility of carbon (C) in the solution to corrode the graphite crucible, and then pulls the silicon carbide single crystal on the seed crystal in contact with the solution surface. Compared with the PVT method, the SiC crystals grown by the TSSG method have no micropipe defects and are relatively easy to expand, but there are also high technical barriers. Inappropriate process parameters will destroy the dynamic balance during the crystal growth process and produce adverse effects such as polycrystalline growth. Due to the low solubility of C in Si solution, it is usually necessary to add a metal co-solvent to increase the solubility of C in the solution. Adding a co-solvent such as Al can achieve the growth of p-type SiC crystals, but the technology for growing n-type SiC single crystals by the liquid phase method is still immature. That is: the main disadvantage of using the TSSG method is that it is difficult to obtain n-type ingots.
[0006] Therefore, the single crystal furnace of the prior art is only used for one growth method. If you want to be compatible with the production of high-quality p-type and n-type SiC single crystals at the same time, you need to equip multiple single crystal furnaces at the same time. The maintenance cost of single crystal furnace equipment is high, and equipping multiple single crystal furnaces will undoubtedly increase the burden of labor and equipment costs for manufacturers. How to provide a device that is compatible with the production of high-quality p-type and n-type SiC single crystals has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in this field.
