The Face

We have carried out detailed investigations on the influence of the growth conditions and the wafer off angle on the surface morphology of low off angle homoepitaxial growth. We found triangular features to be also serious problems on a 4 degree off 4H-SiC Si-face epitaxial layer surface. The control of the C/Si ratio by controlling the SiH4 flow rate is effective in suppressing the triangular features on 4 degree off Si-face homoepitaxial layer. As regards epitaxial growth on a vicinal off-axis substrate, the small off angle difference of a tenth part of a degree has an influence on the surface morphology of the epitaxial layer. This tendency depends on the face polarity and a C-face can be obtained that has a specular surface with a lower vicinal off angle than a Si-face. By controlling this off angle, a specular surface morphology without a bunched step structure could be obtained on a vicinal off angle 4H-SiC Si-face.

We have carried out detailed investigations of 4H-SiC homoepitaxial growth on vicinal off-angled Si-face substrates. We found that the surface morphology of the substrate just after in-situ H2 etching was also affected by the value of the vicinal-off angle. Growth conditions consisting of a low C/Si ratio and a low growth temperature were effective in suppressing macro step bunching at the grown epilayer surface. We also demonstrated epitaxial growth without step bunching on a 2-inch 4H-SiC Si-face substrate with a vicinal off angle of 0.79o. Ni Schottky barrier diodes fabricated on an as-grown epilayer had a blocking voltage above 1000V and a leakage current of less than 5x10-7A/cm2. We also investigated the propagation of basal plane dislocation from the vicinal off angled substrate into the epitaxial layer.

Thin epitaxial TiC and VC films and superlattices have been deposited on MgO(001) by simultaneous sputtering of the metals and evaporation of C60. It was found that epitaxial growth conditions for TiC could be maintained down to a temperature of 100 °C, while the epitaxial growth of VC required 200 °C. Epitaxial VC films were completely relaxed at all growth temperatures, while a change from a relaxed to a strained growth behavior was observed for TiC films. The structural quality of the TiC films was better than for the VC films. A general observation was that a plasma-assisted deposition process yields films with a higher quality and allows epitaxial growth at lower temperatures than for a pure coevaporation process.

Diamond is nominated as a material candidate for future high power device due to its superior material properties and resulting very high FOM. In this paper, our recent progresses and the expected possibilities of diamond for power electronics applications are introduced as short review. Firstly for the epitaxial growth, by adopting step-flow epitaxial growth by off- angle substrate with optimized growth conditions, we have succeeded in reducing these killer defects almost six orders from 106cm-2 to almost 100cm-2 levels. For the substrate, our recently developed technology to fabricate diamond plates from bulk, 12x13mm2 size are available to use, that can avoid fabrication difficulties with small size substrate. Secondly for the device, primitive studies showed possibly for the advantage of diamond such as low reverse leakage current, high temperature and high current density operation.

Thick Layers

Epitaxial growth of about 200 µm thick, low doped 4H-SiC layers grown on n-type 8° off-axis Si-face substrates at growth rates around 100 µm/h has been done in order to realize thick epitaxial layers with excellent morphology suitable for high power devices. The study was done in a hot wall chemical vapor deposition reactor without rotation. The growth of such thick layers required favorable pre-growth conditions and in-situ etch. The growth of 190 µm thick, low doped epitaxial layers with excellent morphology was possible when the C/Si ratio was below 0.9. A low C/Si ratio and a favorable in-situ etch are shown to be the key parameters to achieve 190 µm thick epitaxial layers with excellent morphology.

In order to understand the influence of the Cl/Si ratio on the morphology of the low-temperature chloro-carbon epitaxial growth, HCl was added during the SiCl4/CH3Cl growth at 1300°C. Use of higher Cl/Si ratio allowed only modest improvements of the growth rate without morphology degradation, which did not go far beyond what has been achieved previously by optimizing the value of the input C/Si ratio. On the other hand, when the epitaxial growth process operated at too low or too high values of the input C/Si ratio, i.e., outside of the window of good epilayer morphology, any additional increase of the Cl/Si ratio caused improvement of the epilayer morphology. It was established that this improvement was due to a change of the effective C/Si ratio towards its intermediate values, which corresponded to more favorable growth conditions.
