  • all the dislocation density of the current commercially available SiC single crystal substrate is approximately 10 3 ⁇ 10 4 cm It is said to be -2 (for example, Patent Document 1). Therefore, in contrast to Si, in which dislocation-free crystals are industrially realized, SiC is a single crystal material in which an element must be manufactured from a region having a constant dislocation density. It is also known that these dislocations have different effects on device performance.
  • Patent Document 2 discloses a SiC single crystal substrate produced by using a method of forming a macro step on a seed crystal during film formation, and the height of the SiC single crystal on the crystal growth surface of the seed crystal is high. It is said that by forming a macrostep having a large size, a SiC single crystal having few penetrating spiral dislocations can be obtained by crystal growth due to the subsequent progress of the macrostep.
  • the method disclosed in Patent Document 2 has a feature that the stacking defects propagate in the progress direction of the macrosteps because the penetrating spiral dislocations are converted into stacking defects and discharged to the outside of the crystal as the macrostep progresses.
  • Patent Document 3 by adding a predetermined amount of Nb, Ta, Mo, W, Ir to the SiC single crystal, dislocations due to thermal stress generated during the growth of the SiC single crystal are less likely to occur, and SiC is generated by epitaxial growth. It is disclosed that dislocations are less likely to occur when a SiC layer is formed on a single crystal.
  • Patent Document 2 the SiC single crystal produced by the method of Patent Document 2 has a problem that the warp becomes large. The cause of this is not clear, but it is probable that the warpage occurred as a result of some stress distribution occurring inside the substrate due to the stacking defects lining up in one direction (the direction in which the macrosteps propagated). Further, Patent Document 2 focuses on the reduction of the penetrating spiral dislocations by converting the penetrating spiral dislocations into stacking defects, and has not made a concrete study on the reduction of the basal plane dislocations. If there are many through-helical dislocations, the long-term reliability of the insulating film is lowered and leak fracture is likely to occur, so that the life of the device is shortened.
  • the present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a biaxially oriented SiC composite substrate having a low defect density reaching the surface and a small warp.

Therefore, the defect density reaching the surface of the second biaxially oriented SiC layer can be reduced as compared with the first biaxially oriented SiC layer. Since such a biaxially oriented SiC composite substrate has a small warp and a low defect density reaching the surface of the second biaxially oriented SiC layer, a functional layer is formed on the surface by epitaxial growth or the like to manufacture a semiconductor device. Suitable for.

  • the defect density is the sum of the density of penetrating spiral dislocations (TSD) and the density of basal plane dislocations (BPD).
  • the first cause of defect formation is the case where defects existing in the underlying layer propagate. That is, when the second biaxially oriented SiC layer is formed on the first biaxially oriented SiC layer, the defects existing in the first biaxially oriented SiC layer propagate to the second biaxially oriented SiC layer. there is a possibility.
  • the effect of suppressing the propagation of defects can be considered. Although this mechanism is not clear, the formation of the biaxially oriented SiC layer around the defect is suppressed by the accumulation of rare earth elements, Al, and N in the defect propagated in the biaxially oriented SiC layer, and a healthy region without defects.
  • the biaxially oriented SiC layer from the above grows preferentially, and as a result, the defects reaching the surface of the second biaxially oriented SiC layer are reduced. Further, it is also considered that the defects propagated in the second biaxially oriented SiC layer are likely to cause pair annihilation between the defects at an early stage by containing a predetermined amount and a predetermined ratio of rare earth elements, Al, and N.

  • a biaxially oriented SiC layer can be obtained.
  • the third cause of defect formation is considered to be thermal stress due to the temperature distribution when the second biaxially oriented SiC layer is formed or when the temperature is lowered to room temperature after the formation.
