Hot filament CVD (HFCVD) growth of undoped 4H-SiC epitaxial layers on 100 mm n-type 4o-off 4H-SiC substrates is presented as an alternate growth method for the first time. High quality crystalline material with a low density of polytype inclusions has been demonstrated and characterized with optical micrographs, SEM imaging, micro-Raman measurements, and high resolution XRD. Typical growth rates are ~3 μm/hour. Double rocking omega scans revealed diffraction peaks with a FWHM of 23 arcsec.

Analysis of hot-filament CVD (HF-CVD) growth of high quality 3C-SiC on micron-sized 3C-SiC mesas is presented. Two types of growth were observed: 1) a relatively slow growth at about 1μm/hour, and 2) an almost three times faster growth, correlated with the presence of domain boundaries in, or adjacent to, the mesas. Both reveal well-defined crystallographic facets and sharp corners between them. The slower growth has been identified to be surface-nucleation-limited, seemingly defect-free, while the faster growth has been identified as being caused by defect-induced step-flow growth. A growth model is presented, yielding a growth rate of 1.18 μm/h for the defect free {111} and (100) plane and 2.8 μm/h for {110} planes.

AbstractThis paper describes the growth mechanism of silicon whisker on a silicon substrate using hot filament CVD reactor. Only hydrogen is used as source gas. The particle layer could be obtained at high filament current condition under hydrogen ambient. XPS analysis result suggests that the particle is composed of tungsten silicide. The deposition condition of the particle layer is much depended on the substrate size, surface condition and the distance between the substrate and the filament. The experimental results suggest that the silicon hydride, which generated at the silicon surface by hydrogen radical etching, react with the tungsten filament material around the filament, depositing on the silicon substrate. The silicon surface is etched by hydrogen radical and its resultant surface morphology is much depended on the particle deposition pattern. Many silicon whiskers, which diameter is varied from 10 to 50 nm, are observed on the textured silicon surface when the residence time of the source gas in the reactor is long. Each whisker has a silicon particle on their tip. The silicon hydride generated by the hydrogen radical etching is much absorbed to the silicide particle when the source gas residence time is long, enabling the silicon whisker growth from the particle. The results suggest that nm size whisker structure is much stable compare to the bulk silicon against etching reaction.
