Abstract

The invention discloses a method for suppressing the formation of carbon inclusion defects in the growth of conductive silicon carbide crystals. It uses carbon powder, silicon powder and nitrogen as raw materials to synthesize nitrogen-containing silicon carbide powder, and then uses the nitrogen-containing silicon carbide powder as raw material to grow silicon carbide single crystals to obtain silicon carbide crystals. The invention uses nitrogen-containing silicon carbide powder to grow silicon carbide crystals, which can make nitrogen doping more evenly distributed in the gas phase components, so that the resistivity uniformity in the wafer is better, and solves the problem that nitrogen gas cannot permeate due to nitrogen gas being introduced from the outside. Uniformity, resulting in poor uniformity of N doping concentration in the wafer, which in turn leads to poor uniformity of wafer resistivity. Therefore, the method for suppressing carbon inclusion defects in conductive silicon carbide crystals provided by the present invention is suitable for growing conductive silicon carbide crystals, especially suitable for preparing large-diameter conductive silicon carbide crystals, and has broad market application prospects.
