A novel approach for the growth of high-quality on-axis epitaxial silicon carbide (SiC) films and boules, using the Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technique, is described here. The method includes a method of substrate preparation, which allows for the growth of “on-axis” SiC films, plus an approach giving the opportunity to grow silicon carbide on singular (a small-angle miscut) substrates, using halogenated carbon-containing precursors (carbon tetrachloride, CCl4, or halogenated hydrocarbons, CHCl3, CH2Cl2, or CH3Cl, or similar compounds or chemicals), or introducing other chlorine-containing species, in the gas phase, in the growth chamber. At gas mixtures greater than the critical amount, small clusters of SiC are etched, before they can become stable nuclei. The presence of chlorine and the formation of gas species allow an increased removal rate of these nuclei, in contrast to the growth without the presence of chlorine. Or, alternatively, the novel precursors introduced in the growth system reduce the effective supersaturation ratio of the Si species in the growth layer. The reduction of the supersaturation ratio reduces or eliminates the 2D (and 3C—SiC) nucleation which would occur due to the large terrace widths present on the on-axis wafers. This allows the growth of Silicon Carbide epitaxial layers on SiC substrates or composite substrates with monocrystalline layers. This can also be applied to the other semiconductors, chemicals, compounds, materials, growth methods, or devices.

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprises dry-etching a thin film using a resist mask carrying patterns in which at least one of the width of each pattern and the space between neighboring two patterns ranges from 32 to 130 nm using a halogenated carbon-containing compound gas with the halogen being at least two members selected from the group consisting of F, I and Br. The ratio of at least one of I and Br is not more than 26% of the total amount of the halogen atoms as expressed in terms of the atomic compositional ratio to transfer the patterns onto the thin film. Such etching of a thin film avoids causing damage to the resist mask used. The resulting thin film carrying the transferred patterns is used as a mask for subjecting the underlying material to dry-etching.
