- a heat reflecting metal plate (not shown) is fixed to the side wall and ceiling of the main heating chamber 21, and the heat reflecting metal plate reflects the heat of the heater 26 toward the center of the main heating chamber 21. It is configured. Thereby, SiC substrate 40 can be heated strongly and evenly, and the temperature can be raised to a temperature of 1000 ° C. or higher and 2300 ° C. or lower.
- the heater 26 for example, a resistance heating type heater or a high frequency induction heating type heater can be used.
- the SiC substrate 40 is heated while being accommodated in the crucible (accommodating container) 30.
- the crucible 30 is placed on an appropriate support base or the like, and is configured to be movable at least from the preheating chamber to the main heating chamber by moving the support base.
- the crucible 30 includes an upper container 31 and a lower container 32 that can be fitted to each other. The detailed configuration of the crucible 30 will be described later.
- the crucible 30 When heat-treating the SiC substrate 40, first, the crucible 30 is placed in the preheating chamber 22 of the high-temperature vacuum furnace 10 as shown by the chain line in FIG. Heat. Next, the crucible 30 is moved to the main heating chamber 21 that has been heated to a preset temperature (for example, about 1800 ° C.) in advance. Thereafter, SiC substrate 40 is heated while adjusting the pressure and the like. Note that preheating may be omitted.
- a preset temperature for example, about 1800 ° C.
- the crucible 30 is configured as shown in FIG. 2 in the portion constituting the wall surface (upper surface, side surface, and bottom surface) of the internal space in which the SiC substrate 40 is accommodated.
- the crucible 30 is composed of a tantalum layer (Ta), a tantalum carbide layer (TaC and Ta 2 C), and a tantalum silicide layer (TaSi 2 or Ta 5 Si 3 or the like) in order from the outer side to the inner space side.
- Ta tantalum layer
- TaC and Ta 2 C tantalum carbide layer
- TaSi 2 or Ta 5 Si 3 or the like tantalum silicide layer
- This tantalum silicide layer supplies Si to the internal space. Further, since the crucible 30 includes a tantalum layer and a tantalum carbide layer, ambient C vapor can be taken in. Thereby, the inside space can be made into high purity Si atmosphere.
- a crucible composed of a tantalum layer and a tantalum carbide layer is conventionally known.
- a tantalum silicide layer is formed in this crucible.
- Si vaporized in advance at a high temperature is placed in the inner space of the crucible and heated at 1800 ° C. for 15 minutes under a reduced pressure of 10 Pa or less, for example, as shown in FIG.
- a tantalum silicide layer having a composition of 2 is formed.
- FIG. 2B shows an X-ray diffraction pattern of the tantalum silicide layer formed as described above.
- the peak marked with a circle indicates tantalum carbide, and the other peaks indicate TaSi 2 .
- TaSi 2 is sufficiently formed by forming the tantalum silicide layer by the above method.
- Ta 5 Si 3 can be formed in addition to TaSi 2 (see FIG. 3A).
- Si vaporized in the same manner as described above is introduced into the internal space of the crucible and heated at 2000 ° C. for 15 minutes under a reduced pressure of 10 Pa or less, for example.
- FIG. 3B shows an X-ray diffraction pattern of the tantalum silicide layer prepared as described above.
- the peak marked with a circle indicates tantalum carbide, and the other peaks indicate Ta 5 Si 3 .
- Ta 5 Si 3 is sufficiently formed by forming the tantalum silicide layer by the above method.
- FIG. 4 shows a graph showing the partial pressure of Si vapor pressure of Si, SiC, TaSi 2 , and Ta 5 Si 3 . It can be seen from FIG. 4 that the Si vapor pressure supplied from TaSi 2 and Ta 5 Si 3 shows a very high pressure. Therefore, it is obvious that the tantalum silicide layer becomes a supply source of Si to the internal space of the crucible 30. Moreover, the tantalum silicide layer is formed over the entire wall surface constituting the internal space. Thereby, the pressure distribution of Si in the internal space can be made uniform. Therefore, SiC substrate 40 can be etched uniformly.
- etching Si vapor pressure etching (hereinafter simply referred to as etching) performed in the present embodiment will be described, and the difference in etching rate when using a crucible 30 having a different composition will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. explain.
- the SiC substrate 40 is accommodated in the crucible 30 and heated using the high-temperature vacuum furnace 10 in a temperature range of 1500 ° C. to 2200 ° C., preferably 1600 ° C. to 2000 ° C. under high purity Si vapor pressure. Thereby, the surface of SiC substrate 40 is etched. In this etching, the following reaction is performed. Briefly, when the SiC substrate 40 is heated under Si vapor pressure, Si vapor is desorbed from SiC by thermal decomposition. Further, Si vapor is supplied from the tantalum silicide layer. C remaining by the desorption of Si vapor due to thermal decomposition reacts with Si vapor to be sublimated as Si 2 C or SiC 2 .
- the etching rate is considered to be closely related to the rate at which SiC 2 and Si 2 C take in C atoms. Therefore, it is considered that the higher the ratio of the amount of tantalum contained in the compound constituting the tantalum silicide layer, the higher the etching rate. Further, the pressure equilibrium constant of the reaction between SiC 2 and TaSi 2 is smaller than the pressure equilibrium constant of the reaction between SiC 2 and Ta 5 Si 3 . From the above, it is considered that the etching rate when the tantalum silicide layer uses the TaSi 2 crucible 30 is slower than the etching rate when the tantalum silicide layer uses the Ta 5 Si 3 crucible 30.
- FIG. 6 shows a case where a 4H—SiC (0001) plane with an off angle of 4 ° is formed in a high vacuum using a crucible 30 having a tantalum silicide layer of TaSi 2 and a crucible 30 having a tantalum silicide layer of Ta 5 Si 3. It is a figure which shows a result when it etches at 1650 to 2100 degreeC under (10 ⁇ -4> Pa). From the graph of FIG. 6, it can be confirmed that the etching rate of the crucible 30 containing TaSi 2 is significantly slower than that of the crucible 30 containing Ta 5 Si 3 .
- the etching rate can be easily changed without changing the heating temperature or the like by properly using the crucibles 30 having different tantalum silicide layer compositions.
- the crucible 30 is properly used.
- FIG. 7 is a view showing a micrograph and surface roughness of the surface of the SiC substrate 40 when etching is performed while changing the pressure (that is, the etching rate) of an inert gas (Ar gas) during etching.
- the pressure of the inert gas is 1.3 kPa
- the surface roughness is high, and it can be seen from the micrograph that step bunching clearly remains.
- the pressure of the inert gas is 133 Pa
- the surface roughness is remarkably reduced, and it can be seen from the micrograph that a part of the step bunching is removed.
- the pressure of the inert gas is 13 Pa and 1.3 Pa and when the vacuum is high, the surface roughness is further reduced, and it can be seen from the micrograph that almost all step bunching can be removed. In this way, whether or not the step bunching is removed can be selected according to the pressure of the inert gas (that is, the etching rate).
- the SiC substrate 40 in which step bunching does not occur has high performance as a semiconductor element because local concentration of the electric field does not occur.
- the SiC substrate 40 in which step bunching has occurred can further eliminate the influence of crystal defects (dislocations) when performing, for example, a solution growth method. Therefore, it is preferable to switch the occurrence of step bunching depending on the situation.
- the etching rate can be switched only by using different crucibles 30. Therefore, when manufacturing the SiC substrate 40 in which step bunching does not occur, the crucible 30 having a tantalum silicide layer of Ta 5 Si 3 is used. Etching (high-speed etching) may be performed. On the other hand, when manufacturing the SiC substrate 40 in which step bunching occurs, etching (low-speed etching) may be performed using the crucible 30 whose tantalum silicide layer is TaSi 2 .
- an ingot composed of a 4H—SiC single crystal or a 6H—SiC single crystal is cut out to a predetermined thickness.
- processing such as mechanical polishing and chemical mechanical polishing is performed in order to remove irregularities formed on the surface of the SiC substrate 40 at the time of cutting. Since the unevenness of the unevenness is considerably large, it is required to polish the SiC substrate 40 at a high speed.
- latent scratch an altered layer with disordered crystallinity
- it is required to polish the SiC substrate 40 at a high speed. Therefore, in order to remove latent scratches instead of mechanical polishing and chemical mechanical polishing, etc., it is possible to perform etching (high-speed etching) more simply than before by using the crucible 30 whose tantalum silicide layer is Ta 5 Si 3. it can.
- the epitaxial layer growth, ion implantation, and impurities implanted as ions are performed on the SiC substrate 40 that has undergone the processing step.
- dopant impurities implanted as ions
- Etching is then performed to remove the dopant deficient portion and planarize the roughened surface by ion implantation.
- the dopant deficient portion varies depending on the ion implantation conditions, but exists in a region of about several tens to several hundreds nm from the surface of the SiC substrate 40, for example.
- the dopant concentration is lower in the portion from the surface to several tens of nm and becomes deeper than about 500 nm.
- the dopant concentration is reduced. Therefore, in order to leave a portion having a sufficient dopant concentration while removing the dopant-deficient portion, it is necessary to precisely control the etching amount. Therefore, it is preferable to reduce the etching rate. However, if the etching rate is lower than the predetermined rate as described above, step bunching cannot be removed.
- this etching is precise under the condition that the tantalum silicide layer uses the TaSi 2 crucible 30 and step bunching does not occur in order to prevent excessive removal of the portion where the dopant is sufficiently present. Etching (low-speed etching) may be performed.
- etching can be performed at an appropriate etching rate without much change in the heating temperature or the like.
- the SiC substrate 40 is etched by heating under the vapor pressure of Si while the SiC substrate 40 is accommodated in the crucible 30.
- the crucible 30 includes tantalum metal, and a tantalum carbide layer is provided on the inner space side of the tantalum metal, and a tantalum silicide layer is further provided on the inner space side of the tantalum carbide layer. Then, the etching rate of SiC substrate 40 is controlled based on the difference in the composition of the tantalum silicide layer.
- the etching rate of the SiC substrate 40 can be controlled without changing the heating temperature, the Si pressure, or the like.
- the composition of the tantalum silicide layer is different from each other (specifically, TaSi 2 and Ta 5 Si 3 ), and at least two crucibles 30 are used according to the processing to be performed. Use the crucible 30 properly.
- high-speed etching and low-speed etching can be performed.
- a crucible 30 having a higher ratio of tantalum to one molecule of a compound constituting the tantalum silicide layer (specifically, Ta 5 Si 3 ) is used.
- a crucible 30 is used which has a lower proportion of tantalum (specifically, TaSi 2 ) in one molecule of the compound constituting the tantalum silicide layer.
- TaSi 2 or Ta 5 Si 3 is formed as tantalum silicide.
- tantalum silicide represented by another chemical formula may be formed.
- Ta 2 Si, Ta 3 Si, or Ta 5 Si 3 C 0.5 may be formed. Note that in this specification, even if other atoms such as Ta 5 Si 3 C 0.5 are included, it corresponds to the tantalum silicide layer.
- tantalum silicide having the same composition is formed over the entire inner wall surface of one crucible 30, but tantalum silicide having a plurality of compositions may be formed on the inner wall surface of one crucible 30.
- the etching rate of only a part of the surface of the SiC substrate 40 can be increased or decreased, and the SiC substrate 40 having a desired shape can be generated in consideration thereof.
- the temperature conditions and pressure conditions described above are examples and can be changed as appropriate. Further, a heating device other than the high-temperature vacuum furnace 10 described above may be used, or a container having a shape or material different from that of the crucible 30 may be used.
- the outer shape of the storage container is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and may be a cubic shape or a rectangular parallelepiped shape.
