METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SILICON CARBIDE SINGLE CRYSTAL

摘要

A method for manufacturing silicon carbide single crystal having a diameter larger than 100 mm by sublimation includes the following steps. A seed substrate made of silicon carbide and silicon carbide raw material are prepared. Silicon carbide single crystal is grown on the growth face of the seed substrate by sublimating the silicon carbide raw material. In the step of growing silicon carbide single crystal, the maximum growing rate of the silicon carbide single crystal growing on the growth face of the seed substrate is greater than the maximum growing rate of the silicon carbide crystal growing on the surface of the silicon carbide raw material. Thus, there can be provided a method for manufacturing silicon carbide single crystal allowing a thick silicon carbide single crystal film to be obtained, when silicon carbide single crystal having a diameter larger than 100 mm is grown.
