Evolution of Fast 4H-SiC CVD Growth and Defect Reduction Techniques

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper introduces our recent challenges in fast 4H-SiC CVD growth and defect reduction. Enhanced growth rates in 4H-SiC epitaxial growth by high-speed wafer rotation and in a high-temperature gas source method promoting SiC bulk growth by increasing the gas flow velocity are demonstrated. Trials and results of deflecting threading dislocations by patterned C-face 4H-SiC epitaxial growth are also shown.
