Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor materials, and particularly relates to a processing device for high-purity graphite parts. Background Art

[0002] In the efficient and fast-paced information society, high temperature, high pressure, high frequency, and high power have become a threshold that we must overcome in our development. As a representative of the third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor materials - silicon carbide, due to the structural characteristics of its materials, it can almost perfectly meet the above-mentioned many advantages in applications. Especially in the emerging new energy market in recent years, it has initially witnessed its glorious moment.

[0003] Since there is no melt with stoichiometric ratio of silicon carbide at normal temperature and pressure, it is impossible to prepare and produce it by the mature and efficient Czochralski method. Currently, the most commonly used and mature method for preparing silicon carbide single crystals at home and abroad is the physical vapor transport (PVT) method. It is under the protection of high-purity dynamic inert gas. In a suitable temperature field established by induction heating or graphite resistance heating, after the high-purity silicon carbide powder decomposes and sublimes in the high-temperature source material area of the growth cavity, under the action of the temperature gradient of the thermal field and the gas-phase concentration gradient of the substance, it is transported to the low-temperature seed crystal guiding area, and atomic-level regular arrangement and crystal growth are carried out again in the low-temperature seed crystal guiding area.

[0004] The entire single crystal growth process is carried out in a high-temperature and low-pressure closed cavity, and there is always air leakage in the equipment or materials. Most of the thermal system materials used in growth are high-three graphite or high-purity carbon materials. There are pores inside the high-three graphite and high-purity carbon materials. Oxygen, nitrogen, moisture, etc. in the air are easily adsorbed repeatedly by these pores and are difficult to remove, which is easy to cause corrosion to the graphite materials, pollute the pure growth environment, and change the electrical parameters of the materials.
