            Production Process of SiC Single Crystal

            Silicon carbide single crystal is extremely rare in nature and can only be prepared by artificial synthesis. At present, the industrial production of silicon carbide substrate is mainly based on PVT method. This method needs to sublimate the powder with high temperature and vacuum, and then let the components grow on the seed surface through thermal field control, so as to obtain the silicon carbide crystals. The whole process is completed in an enclosed space, with few effective monitoring and many variables, which requires high process control accuracy.

            SICC independently own the whole process from SiC powder to crystal growth and wafering.
            1.

            SiC Powder

            Si+C=SiCPowder
            Si and C are synthesized to SiC polycrystalline particles in the ratio of 1:1
            SiC powder is the source of crystal growth, and its particle size and purity will directly affect the crystal quality
            Especially in the preparation of semi-insulating substrate, the requirement of powder purity is very high
            (Impurity content<0.5ppm)
            2.

            Seed

            As the base of crystal growth, it provides the basic lattice structure for crystal growth
            It is also the core raw material for crystal quality
            3.

            Crystal Growth

            Physical Vapor Transport(PVT)
            The raw materials are heated,
            and the sublimated components recrystallize on the seed surface through vapor sublimation and thermal field control
            4.

            Slicing

            SiC is a hard and brittle material whose hardness is second only to diamond
            Therefore, it takes long time for slicing, and is easy to crack.

            Lapping?Polishing

            MP·CMP
            Lapping and polishing is to process the substrate surface to nano smooth mirror, which is Epi-ready
            The surface state of substrate, such as surface roughness and thickness uniformity, will directly affect the quality of epitaxy and then affect the quality of devices.
            6.

            Cleaning ? Inspection

            To remove residual particles and metal impurities in the wafering processes
            The final inspection can retain complete quality information such as substrate surface, surface flatness and crystal quality
            It helps to trace for the downstream process
