  • An example of a film formation apparatus (AD apparatus) used in such an AD method is shown in Figure 3.
  • the AD apparatus 50 shown in Figure 3 is configured as an apparatus used in the AD method in which raw material powder is sprayed onto a substrate under an atmosphere with a lower pressure than atmospheric pressure.
  • This AD apparatus 50 includes an aerosol generation section 52 that generates an aerosol of raw material powder containing raw material components, and a film formation section 60 that sprays the raw material powder onto a SiC single crystal substrate 20 to form a film containing the raw material components.
  • the aerosol generating section 52 includes an aerosol generating chamber 53 that contains raw material powder and generates aerosol by receiving a carrier gas from a gas cylinder (not shown), a raw material supply pipe 54 that supplies the generated aerosol to the film forming section 60, and a vibrator 55 that applies vibrations at a frequency of 10 to 100 Hz to the aerosol generating chamber 53 and the aerosol therein.
  • the film forming section 60 includes a film forming chamber 62 that sprays the aerosol onto the SiC single crystal substrate 20, a substrate holder 64 that is disposed inside the film forming chamber 62 and fixes the SiC single crystal substrate 20, and an XY stage 63 that moves the substrate holder 64 in the X-axis and Y-axis directions.
  • the film forming section 60 also includes an injection nozzle 66 that has a slit 67 formed at its tip and sprays the aerosol onto the SiC single crystal substrate 20, and a vacuum pump 68 that reduces the pressure in the film forming chamber 62.
  • the injection nozzle 66 is attached to the tip of the raw material supply pipe 54.
  • the AD method can cause pores in the film or the film to become a compact, depending on the deposition conditions. For example, it is easily affected by the collision speed of the raw material powder with the substrate, the particle size of the raw material powder, the agglomeration state of the raw material powder in the aerosol, the amount sprayed per unit time, etc.
  • the collision speed of the raw material powder with the substrate is affected by the pressure difference between the deposition chamber 62 and the spray nozzle 66, the opening area of the spray nozzle, etc. For this reason, in order to obtain a dense oriented precursor layer, it is necessary to appropriately control these factors.
  • the source gas is not particularly limited, but silicon tetrachloride (SiCl 4 ) gas or silane (SiH 4 ) gas can be used as a Si source, and methane (CH 4 ) gas or propane (C 3 H 8 ) gas can be used as a C source.
  • the deposition temperature is preferably 1000 to 2200°C, more preferably 1100 to 2000°C, and even more preferably 1200 to 1900°C.
  • the oriented precursor layer 40 is not oriented when it is produced, that is, it is amorphous or unoriented polycrystalline, and it is preferable to use a SiC single crystal as a seed crystal during the heat treatment process to cause crystal rearrangement. It is known that the film formation temperature, the gas flow rate of the Si source and the C source and their ratio, the film formation pressure, etc. have an effect on the formation of an amorphous or polycrystalline layer on a SiC single crystal using a thermal CVD method.
  • the film formation temperature has a large effect, and from the viewpoint of forming an amorphous or polycrystalline layer, a low film formation temperature is preferable, preferably less than 1700°C, more preferably 1500°C or less, and even more preferably 1400°C or less. However, if the film formation temperature is too low, the film formation rate itself also decreases, so from the viewpoint of the film formation rate, a high film formation temperature is preferable.
  • the orientation precursor layer 40 can be prepared by molding the raw material powder of the orientation precursor.
  • the orientation precursor layer 40 is a press molded body.
  • the press molded body can be prepared by press molding the raw material powder of the orientation precursor based on a known method, for example, by putting the raw material powder into a mold and pressing it at a pressure of preferably 100 to 400 kgf/cm 2 , more preferably 150 to 300 kgf/cm 2.
  • there is no particular limitation on the molding method and in addition to press molding, tape molding, extrusion molding, casting molding, doctor blade method, and any combination thereof can be used.
  • additives such as binders, plasticizers, dispersants, and dispersion media are appropriately added to the raw material powder to make a slurry, and the slurry is preferably discharged and molded into a sheet by passing it through a thin slit-shaped discharge port.
  • the thickness of the molded body molded into a sheet there is no limitation on the thickness of the molded body molded into a sheet, but from the viewpoint of handling, it is preferable that it is 5 to 500 ⁇ m.
  • a number of these sheet molded bodies may be stacked and used to obtain the desired thickness. These molded bodies are then heat-treated on the SiC single crystal substrate 20, and the portions near the SiC single crystal substrate 20 become the SiC substrate 30.
  • the molded body it is necessary to sinter the molded body in the heat treatment process described below. It is preferable to form the SiC substrate 30 after the molded body is sintered and integrated with the SiC single crystal substrate 20 as a polycrystalline body. If the molded body does not go through the sintered state, epitaxial growth using the SiC single crystal as a seed may not occur sufficiently. For this reason, the molded body may contain additives such as sintering aids in addition to the SiC raw material.
  • the SiC substrate 30 is generated by heat treating the laminate in which the orientation precursor layer 40 is laminated or placed on the SiC single crystal substrate 20.
  • the heat treatment method is not particularly limited as long as epitaxial growth occurs using the SiC single crystal substrate 20 as a seed, and can be performed in a known heat treatment furnace such as a tubular furnace or a hot plate. In addition to these normal pressure (pressless) heat treatments, pressurized heat treatments such as hot pressing and HIP, and combinations of normal pressure heat treatment and pressurized heat treatment can also be used.
  • the heat treatment atmosphere is preferably an inert gas atmosphere containing nitrogen.
  • the nitrogen-containing inert gas is preferably a mixed gas containing nitrogen and argon, and the flow rate of nitrogen at that time is, for example, 0.5 to 15 L/min, and the flow rate of argon is, for example, 3 to 100 L/min.
  • the heat treatment temperature is preferably 1700 to 2700° C. By increasing the temperature, the orientation precursor layer 40 is likely to grow while being oriented to the c-axis and a-axis with the SiC single crystal substrate 20 as a seed crystal. Therefore, the heat treatment temperature is preferably 1700°C or higher, more preferably 1800°C or higher, even more preferably 1900°C or higher, and particularly preferably 2200°C or higher.
  • the heat treatment temperature is preferably 2700°C or lower, more preferably 2500°C or lower.
  • the heat treatment conditions affect the content of rare earth elements in the biaxially oriented SiC layer, it is preferable to appropriately control the conditions (for example, heat treatment temperature and holding time).
  • the heat treatment temperature is preferably 1900 to 2700°C, more preferably 2200 to 2600°C, and even more preferably 2400 to 2500°C.
  • the holding time is preferably 2 to 30 hours, more preferably 4 to 20 hours.
  • the heat treatment temperature and holding time are related to the thickness of the SiC substrate 30 produced by epitaxial growth, and can be adjusted as appropriate.
  • the orientation precursor layer 40 when a molded body prepared in advance is used as the orientation precursor layer 40, it is necessary to sinter it during the heat treatment, and high-temperature atmospheric sintering, hot pressing, HIP, or a combination thereof is suitable.
  • the surface pressure is preferably 50 kgf/cm 2 or more, more preferably 100 kgf/cm 2 or more, and even more preferably 200 kgf/cm 2 or more, and there is no particular upper limit.
  • the sintering temperature is also not particularly limited as long as sintering and epitaxial growth occur.
  • the sintering conditions affect the content of rare earth elements in the biaxially oriented SiC layer, it is preferable to appropriately control the conditions (for example, the sintering temperature and holding time).
  • the sintering temperature is preferably 1700 to 2700 ° C.
  • the holding time is preferably 2 to 18 hours.
  • the atmosphere during sintering can be selected from vacuum, nitrogen, inert gas, or a mixed gas of nitrogen and inert gas.
  • sintering may be performed in multiple stages, and the sintering temperature and total holding time are preferably within the above range.
  • the SiC powder used as the raw material may be composed of at least one of ⁇ -SiC and ⁇ -SiC, but is preferably composed of ⁇ -SiC.
  • the SiC powder is preferably composed of SiC particles having an average particle size of 0.01 to 100 ⁇ m.
  • the average particle size refers to the average value obtained by observing the powder with a scanning electron microscope and measuring the maximum diameter in a certain direction for 100 primary particles.
  • the crystals in the oriented precursor layer 40 grow from the crystal growth surface of the SiC single crystal substrate 20 while being oriented in the c-axis and a-axis, so that the oriented precursor layer 40 gradually changes from the crystal growth surface into the SiC substrate 30.
  • the SiC composite substrate including the resulting SiC substrate 30 has a controlled Raman shift value, which indicates a peak corresponding to the shear wave acoustic branch of the Raman spectrum, and has reduced warping. The exact mechanism behind this is unclear, but it is thought that, for example, by increasing the flow rate of nitrogen during heat treatment, the uniformity of the nitrogen concentration and heat distribution increases, resulting in reduced warping.
