Example 1
The embodiment provides a preparation method of a high-purity raw material for growing an aluminum nitride single crystal, which comprises the following steps:
step one, HF and HNO3Preparing mixed acid according to the volume ratio of 1:1, and carrying out mixed acid pickling on a proper amount of aluminum nitride raw material powder for 20 hours at the temperature of 20 ℃; washing with ultrasonic water, and repeatedly washing the aluminum nitride raw material powder subjected to acid washing for 3-10 times at the ultrasonic frequency of 30-40 KHz until the pH value of a washing liquid is 7;
step two, putting the aluminum nitride raw material powder cleaned in the step two into a tantalum carbide crucible, and placing the tantalum carbide crucible into a PAS furnace body; the PAS furnace body is vacuumized until the vacuum degree is 10-4The temperature is increased to 1200 ℃ within 5min, and the sintering is carried out for 5h under the conditions that the axial pressure, namely the pressure of a pressing shaft is 5MPa, and the advancing distance is 1-2 mm; then, filling nitrogen into the PAS furnace body, keeping the original axial pressure, continuously sintering for 10 hours at the air pressure of 20MPa and the temperature of 1550 ℃, and taking out the crucible;
