<p>Provided are a method for manufacturing a SiC single crystal having high crystal quality and, in particular, extremely low screw dislocation density and a SiC single crystal ingot obtained by the method. In particular, provided is a silicon carbide single crystal substrate that is a substrate cut from a bulk silicon carbide single crystal grown by the Physical Vapior Transport (PVT) method, in which the screw dislocation density is smaller in the peripheral region than in the center region, so that screw dislocations are partially reduced. The method is a method for manufacturing a SiC single crystal by the PVT method using a seed crystal and the ingot is a SiC single crystal ingot obtained by the method. Particularly, the silicon carbide single crystal substrate is a silicon carbide single crystal substrate in which when, by representing the diameter of the substrate as R, a center circle region having a diameter of 0.5 x R centered around a center point O of the substrate and a doughnut-shaped peripheral region remaining by excluding the center circle region are defined, the average value of screw dislocation densities observed in the doughnut-shaped peripheral region is 80% or less of the average value of screw dislocation densities observed in the center circle region.</p> |
