METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE

摘要

A combined substrate is prepared which has a supporting portion and first and second silicon carbide substrates. Between the first and second silicon carbide substrates, a gap having an opening exists. A closing layer for the gap is formed over the opening. The closing layer at least includes a silicon layer. In order to form a cover made of silicon carbide and closing the gap over the opening, the silicon layer is carbonized. By depositing sublimates from the first and second side surfaces of the first and second silicon carbide substrates onto the cover, a connecting portion is formed to close the opening. The cover is removed.
