Abstract

The invention discloses a method for polishing gallium nitride crystals, comprising the following steps: sticking gallium nitride wafers on a quartz plate; grinding the gallium nitride wafers stuck onthe quartz plate by a grinder; heating up the polishing solution, irradiating the polished gallium nitride wafers by ultraviolet light and carrying out chemical mechanical polishing on the ground gallium nitride wafers by a polisher. In the method, based on the chemical mechanical polishing of the traditional gallium nitride wafers, the ultraviolet light is used for irradiating the wafers and a self-made water-bath heating system is simultaneously used for heating up the polishing solution, thus increasing the chemical reaction rate in the process of chemical mechanical polishing, and by adjusting the weight of the heavy objects, the physical removing effect and the chemical effect are balanced, thus not only solving the problem that the gallium nitride wafers are difficult to polish andincreasing the removal rates of N surface and Ga surface, but also obtaining satisfactory shiny surfaces. The method features obviously lower cost and simple process implementation and effectively increases the polishing efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor polishing, in particular to a method for polishing gallium nitride crystals. Background technique [0002] The third-generation semiconductor material gallium nitride has the unique properties of large band gap, high breakdown electric field, high thermal conductivity, high electron saturation drift speed, small dielectric constant, strong radiation resistance, and high chemical stability. Optoelectronic devices such as optical display, optical storage, and optical detection, and microelectronic devices such as high-temperature, high-frequency and high-power electronics have broad application prospects. GaN-based devices have not only been widely used in civilian applications and have huge market potential, but also have great application prospects in the military, and have received great attention from the military of various countries. [0003] In the early and mid-1990s, breakthroughs in GaN-based...
