In this study, special ceramic grinding plates impregnated with diamond grit and other abrasives, as well as self-made lapping plates, were used to prepare the surface of single-crystal silicon carbide (SiC) wafers. This novel approach enhanced the process and reduced the final chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) polishing time. Two different grinding plates with pads impregnated with mixed abrasives were prepared: one with self-modified diamond + SiC and a ceramic binder and one with self-modified diamond + SiO2 + Al2O3 + SiC and a ceramic binder. The surface properties and removal rate of the SiC substrate were investigated and a comparison with the traditional method was conducted. The experimental results showed that the material removal rate (MRR) was higher for the SiC substrate with the mixed abrasive lapping plate than for the traditional method. The grinding wear rate could be reduced by 31.6%. The surface roughness of the samples polished using the diamond-impregnated lapping plate was markedly better than that of the samples polished using the copper plate. However, while the surface finish was better and the grinding efficiency was high, the wear rate of the mixed abrasive-impregnated polishing plates was high. This was a clear indication that this novel method was effective and could be used for SiC grinding and lapping.

Femtosecond (fs) laser modification on single crystal silicon carbide (SiC) was studied from the viewpoints of electric conductivity. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was carried out on femtosecond laser modified area. The intensity decrease of reststrahlen band due to the modification was observed, and this decrease was explained by the degradation of crystallinity due to the laser irradiation. Polarization dependence of reststrahlen band was also observed on laser modified samples. Current-voltage characteristics and Hall measurements on fs-laser modified region were carried out by fabricating the metal contacts on the ion implanted areas. The specific resistance up to 5.9×10-2 m was obtained for fs-laser modified area.
