With the development of semiconductor technology, third-generation semiconductor materials represented by silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) have many excellent physical properties, such as large forbidden bandwidth, high thermal conductivity, high breakdown field strength, high electron saturation drift rate and the like, and the prepared semiconductor device has the characteristics of small volume, ultrahigh switching frequency, ultrahigh voltage operation, high device stability at high temperature and the like. Therefore, silicon carbide or gallium nitride is an excellent material for manufacturing high-voltage, high-temperature or radiation-resistant power semiconductor devices.
The ingot quality of silicon carbide or gallium nitride directly affects the performance of the prepared semiconductor device, taking silicon carbide ingot as an example, the Physical Vapor Transport (PVT) method is generally adopted for growth at present, and the appearance and the crystallization quality of the grown ingot are affected by the temperature uniformity of seed crystal, the silicon-carbon ratio of gas phase components, the flow rate of Transport gas, the impurity content of raw materials and other factors. Defects such as dislocations, micropipes, inclusions, cracks, phase transitions or voids are generated, which severely restrict the performance of the silicon carbide substrate epitaxial device and even lead to premature breakdown of the semiconductor device. The invention provides a method and a device for detecting defects on the surface layer of a silicon carbide crystal ingot. The detection method has the advantages of rapidness, accuracy and no damage to the silicon carbide crystal ingot. The method can be widely applied to detection of other types of crystal ingots, can evaluate the growing method of the crystal ingots, and can also evaluate the quality of the crystal ingots and screen and grade the crystal ingots.
Referring to fig. 1, in one embodiment of the present invention, the inspection apparatus 1 includes a stage 10, and a silicon carbide ingot 11 is placed on the stage 10 in the inspection apparatus 1. After the silicon carbide ingot is grown, it may be processed into a shape for subsequent use by simple processing such as cleaning, cutting or grinding, and then tested. The grown silicon carbide crystal ingot can also be directly tested without treatment to detect the defects possibly existing in the growth process of the silicon carbide crystal ingot, and sample preparation can be specifically carried out according to the detection purpose. After completion of the sample preparation, silicon carbide ingot 11 is placed on stage 10, and silicon carbide ingot 11 is placed in the center of stage 10. A fixing device (not shown) is disposed on the stage 10, and the fixing device is, for example, a slot or a fixing clip, and ensures that the fixing device does not damage the silicon carbide ingot 11, so as to fix the silicon carbide ingot 11, prevent the silicon carbide ingot 11 from shifting during the test process and causing the test result deviation, and ensure the accuracy of the test result. In other embodiments, the detection device provided by the invention can also detect surface layer defects of ingots such as gallium nitride (GaN), monocrystalline silicon (Si), monocrystalline germanium (Ge) or gallium arsenide (GaAs).
Referring to fig. 1, in an embodiment of the invention, the detecting device 1 further includes a laser emitting unit 12, the laser emitting unit 12 is disposed at one side of the object stage 10 and above the object stage 10, and an orthographic projection of the laser emitting unit 12 on a plane of the object stage 10 is outside the object stage 10. In this embodiment, the laser beam emitted by the laser emitting unit 12 is, for example, one or more of single-wavelength lasers with a preset wavelength between 350 nm and 650nm, that is, the laser emitting unit 12 includes a plurality of laser emitters, and the types of the lasers emitted by the laser emitters are different, the laser emitting unit 12 includes one or more of laser emitters emitting red laser (650nm), yellow laser (577nm), green laser (520nm), blue laser (445nm), or violet laser (375nm), and the power of the single laser is, for example, 30 to 500 mW. During the test, the laser beam generated by the laser emitting unit 12 is irradiated to the surface of the silicon carbide ingot 11 through the reflective triple prism 13, the surface of the silicon carbide ingot 11 is irradiated with laser beams having different wavelengths, for example, the carbon face (C face), the silicon face (Si face), the side faces, and the like of the silicon carbide ingot, and the different surfaces of the silicon carbide ingot 11 are inspected to analyze the surface layer defects of the silicon carbide ingot 11 as a whole. In the irradiation process, only single-wavelength laser irradiates the silicon carbide crystal ingot 11 each time, the laser with each wavelength is adopted to irradiate the surface of the silicon carbide crystal ingot 11 in sequence, and information carried by the surface of the silicon carbide crystal ingot 11 is analyzed. In the test process, the stronger the laser power, the deeper the detectable depth of the surface layer of the silicon carbide crystal ingot 11, the longer the laser wavelength and the deeper the detection depth of the silicon carbide crystal ingot 11, and the different depths of the silicon carbide crystal ingot 11 can be detected by adjusting the wavelength and the power of the laser beam. The detection device has wide applicability and can detect different depths of different crystal ingots.
Referring to fig. 1 to 2, in an embodiment of the present invention, the detecting device 1 further includes a reflective prism 13, that is, the laser beam is emitted from the laser emitting unit 12 and does not directly irradiate the silicon carbide ingot 11, and the laser beam passes through the reflective prism 13 and then irradiates the silicon carbide ingot 11.
