The target container 5 is used for placing sputtering target materials, and the two target material baffle plates 6 are respectively arranged above the two target material containers 5. The gas inlet 7 can be provided with a plurality of gas pipelines respectively filled with different gases, and in the embodiment, the gas inlet 7 can be filled with sputtering gas oxygen and argon gas at the same time. The evacuation line 8 is connected to a vacuum system for evacuating the sputtering chamber 13. The lower end of the rotating machine 12 is sequentially connected with the substrate heating plate 11 and the tray 10, so that the substrate heating plate 11 and the tray 10 can rotate simultaneously, and the uniformity of a deposited film on the surface of the substrate in the sputtering process is guaranteed.
The method for manufacturing a semiconductor structure based on a silicon carbide substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention may be manufactured based on the above apparatus, and may also be manufactured based on other apparatuses, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
In order to better describe the method for preparing a semiconductor structure based on a silicon carbide substrate provided in this embodiment, the present embodiment describes a method for preparing a semiconductor structure based on a silicon carbide substrate on the basis of the above apparatus for preparing a gallium oxide epitaxial film of silicon carbide, please refer to fig. 2, where fig. 2 is a schematic flow chart of the method for preparing a semiconductor structure based on a silicon carbide substrate provided in the embodiment of the present invention, and the method for preparing a semiconductor structure based on a silicon carbide substrate specifically includes the following steps:
s1, please refer to fig. 3a, selecting a silicon carbide substrate layer 1;
specifically, the production technology of the silicon carbide substrate layer is mature, and the quality of the prepared device is good; in addition, the silicon carbide has high thermal conductivity and good stability, and can be applied to the high-temperature growth process; finally, silicon carbide has excellent physicochemical properties, and the combination with gallium oxide enables high-power electronic devices with high performance. Therefore, the substrate layer of the present embodiment is made of silicon carbide.
Further, the thickness of the silicon carbide substrate layer is 300-700 mu m, and preferably the thickness of the silicon carbide substrate layer is 500 mu m.
S2, please refer to FIG. 3b, prepared on the surface of the silicon carbide substrate layer 1 (In)xGa1-x)2O3 A buffer layer 2;
s21, sputtering Ga on the surface of the silicon carbide substrate layer by utilizing a magnetron sputtering process in an oxygen and argon environment2O3Target material and In2O3Target formation (In)xGa1-x)2O3The material layer, wherein the magnetron sputtering process utilizes the interaction of a magnetic field and an electric field to enable electrons to run spirally near the surface of the target, so that the probability that the electrons collide with argon gas to generate ions is increased, and the generated ions collide with the target surface under the action of the electric field so as to sputter out the target material. Since the radius of In atoms is smaller than that of Ga atoms, In is doped into Ga2O3In (In)xGa1-x)2O3Resulting In a decrease of the lattice constant, (In) In the case of an appropriate value of xxGa1-x)2O3With SiC and (In)xGa1-x)2O3And Ga2O3Has smaller lattice constant mismatching degreeThis can reduce the defect density caused by dislocations.
Specifically, firstly, oxygen and argon are used as sputtering gases and are simultaneously introduced into a sputtering cavity; then utilizing magnetron sputtering technology to simultaneously sputter Ga on the surface of the silicon carbide substrate layer2O3Target material and In2O3A target material to form (In) on the surface of the silicon carbide substrate layerxGa1-x)2O3A layer of material.
Preferably, (In)xGa1-x)2O3The value range of x in the material layer is 0.58-0.76. When the value range of x is 0.58-0.76, (In) can be ensuredxGa1-x)2O3With SiC and (In)xGa1-x)2O3And Ga2O3The mismatching degree of the lattice constant between the two is small, so that the defect density caused by dislocation can be reduced. If the value of X is too small, the effect of reducing the lattice constant is not achieved, but if the value of X is too large, phase transformation occurs due to limited saturation of the alloy compound, and the effect of reducing the lattice constant and reducing dislocation is not achieved.
Further, the purity of oxygen and argon in percentage by mass is 99.999%, and the flow rate of oxygen can be 2cm3A/second; the flow rate of argon gas may be 20cm3Second while Ga2O3Target material and In2O3The mass ratio purity of the target material is more than 99.99 percent.
In addition, this example is In preparation (In)xGa1-x)2O3The conditions of the magnetron sputtering process provided by the buffer layer comprise: substrate temperature (i.e., substrate layer heating temperature), degree of vacuum, Ga2O3Sputtering power of target material, In2O3Sputtering power of the target, sputtering target base distance and sputtering duration. Wherein the sputtering target base distance refers to the distance between the sputtering target and the silicon carbide substrate layer. The substrate temperature was room temperature. This example is to prepare (In)xGa1-x)2O3The magnetron sputtering process conditions for the buffer layer are preferably: the substrate temperature is 25 ℃; vacuum degree of 5X 10-4~7×10-4Pa, preferably 5.0X 10-4Pa;Ga2O3The sputtering power of the target is 60W; in2O3The sputtering power of the target is 60-80W; the sputtering target base distance is 5 cm; the sputtering time was 1 hour. In this embodiment, since (In) of a proper lattice constant is to be grownxGa1-x)2O3The crystal lattice constant of the SiC substrate can be similar to that of the SiC substrate, the range of x determines the change of the size of the crystal lattice constant, the value range of x is determined by experimental growth conditions, and the proper crystal lattice constant (In) can be grown only under the conditions through a large number of experimentsxGa1-x)2O3That is, the value of x can be set to 0.58-0.76 only under the above conditions.
This embodiment is implemented by setting different In2O3The sputtering power of the target can obtain (In) with different In compositionsxGa1-x)2O3A material. When In2O3(In) generated when the sputtering power of the target is adjusted within a range of 60W to 80WxGa1-x)2O3The value range of x in the material is 0.18-0.26. For example, when In2O3When the sputtering power of the target is 65W, x is 0.21; when In2O3When the sputtering power of the target is 70W, x is 0.24; when In2O3When the target sputtering power was 80W, x was 0.26.
S22, annealing process pair (In)xGa1-x)2O3The material layer is annealed to form (In)xGa1-x)2O3A buffer layer.
