Book The Growth of SiC Crystals from Vapor by the Bridgman Stockbarger Method

Download or read book The Growth of SiC Crystals from Vapor by the Bridgman Stockbarger Method written by Juris Smiltens and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the dissociation curve (P vs. T), an equation for the rate of raising the pressure P of the binary vapor for obtaining the required linear growth rate of the crystal of c centimeters per hour is derived. It is shown that the rate is nearly proportional to P. Modifications of the furnace since the last report (Mat. Res. Bull. 4, S85, 1969) are described. Justification for the use of helium as the inert ambient gas is given. Two techniques are used: (1) growing with constant temperature of the crucible point and (2) growing with constant pressure of the sublimation bottle. To date, only polycrystalline boules consisting of large grains have been obtained. It is believed, however, that with certain technological improvements the methods that are developed here will ultimately yield single crystal boules. As a by-product, small cubic crystals, about one mm in the largest dimension, with good quality faces (cube and octahedron) have been obtained.

Book On the Synthesis of SiC Single Crystals

Download or read book On the Synthesis of SiC Single Crystals written by Yoshizō Inomata and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A method is proposed to synthesize SiC single crystals free of carbon particle inclusions. An empty graphite crucible is connected with the crucible containing silicon melt by means of a graphite pipe. The former crucible is heated to approximately 2,500°C, as in the ordinary sublimation process, while the temperature of the latter is lowered. Crystal growth is accomplished in the empty crucible. The experiments conducted are preliminary. Problems such as damages to the crucible containing silicon melt, prevention of silicon leak, and control of the amount of silicon supply to the growth cavity are examined. The structure of the furnace necessary for the implementation of the method is discussed.

Book Relation Between Growth Temperature and the Structure of SiC Crystals Grown by the Sublimation Method

Download or read book Relation Between Growth Temperature and the Structure of SiC Crystals Grown by the Sublimation Method written by Yoshizō Inomata and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between growth temperature and the polytypes of SiC crystals has been studied experimentally at 2200 degrees C to 2600 degrees C under conditions of low supersaturation. The results are summarized as follows: (1) In the present experiment, excluding one example in which the 4 H-type was involved, the structure of all crystals consisted of the 6 H-, 15 R- and other long c-period types exceeding 21. Of the elemental structures of SiC, 2 H, 3 C, 4 H, 15 R, 6 H, and 21 R, only 6 H and 15 R were found. (2) In the range of 2200 degrees C - 2600 degrees C, 6 H and 15 R have the most thermal stability among the structures considered as elemental. However, the effect of impurity in the crystal and the shift from stoichiometry were neglected. (3) The relative amount of 15 R increased with decreasing temperature while 6 H showed the opposite tendency.

Book Transient Numerical Study of Termperature Gradients During Sublimation Growth of SiC

Download or read book Transient Numerical Study of Termperature Gradients During Sublimation Growth of SiC written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a transient mathematical heat transfer model including heat conduction, radiation, and radio frequency (RF) induction heating, we numerically investigate the time evolution of temperature gradients in axisymmetric growth apparatus during sublimation growth of silicon carbide (SiC) bulk single crystals by physical vapor transport (PVT) (modified Lely method). Temperature gradients on the growing crystal's surface can cause defects. Here, the evolution of these gradients is studied numerically during the heating process, varying the apparatus design, namely the amount of the source powder charge as well as the size of the upper blind hole used for cooling of the seed. Our results show that a smaller upper blind hole can reduce the temperature gradients on the surface of the seed crystal without reducing the surface temperature itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive introduction and up-to-date reference to SiC power semiconductor devices covering topics from material properties to applications Based on a number of breakthroughs in SiC material science and fabrication technology in the 1980s and 1990s, the first SiC Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) were released as commercial products in 2001. The SiC SBD market has grown significantly since that time, and SBDs are now used in a variety of power systems, particularly switch-mode power supplies and motor controls. SiC power MOSFETs entered commercial production in 2011, providing rugged, high-efficiency switches for high-frequency power systems. In this wide-ranging book, the authors draw on their considerable experience to present both an introduction to SiC materials, devices, and applications and an in-depth reference for scientists and engineers working in this fast-moving field. Fundamentals of Silicon Carbide Technology covers basic properties of SiC materials, processing technology, theory and analysis of practical devices, and an overview of the most important systems applications. Specifically included are: A complete discussion of SiC material properties, bulk crystal growth, epitaxial growth, device fabrication technology, and characterization techniques. Device physics and operating equations for Schottky diodes, pin diodes, JBS/MPS diodes, JFETs, MOSFETs, BJTs, IGBTs, and thyristors. A survey of power electronics applications, including switch-mode power supplies, motor drives, power converters for electric vehicles, and converters for renewable energy sources. Coverage of special applications, including microwave devices, high-temperature electronics, and rugged sensors. Fully illustrated throughout, the text is written by recognized experts with over 45 years of combined experience in SiC research and development. This book is intended for graduate students and researchers in crystal growth, material science, and semiconductor device technology. The book is also useful for design engineers, application engineers, and product managers in areas such as power supplies, converter and inverter design, electric vehicle technology, high-temperature electronics, sensors, and smart grid technology.
