Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a high thermal conductivity diamond reinforced silicon carbide (SiC) substrate, which belongs to the field of semiconductor material preparation. In the present invention, patterning is realized on the carbon polar surface of SiC through glue coating, photolithography and development. This is followed by electron beam evaporation or magnetron sputtering of the metal mask. After removing the photoresist, the SiC with periodically arranged metal masks is subjected to reactive ion etching, mask removal, and secondary ion etching to obtain a microcolumn array. The diamond layer is then grown by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition technique. After the diamond layer completely covers the micropillars and has a certain thickness, laser scanning planarization and subsequent precision polishing are used to obtain a diamond-reinforced SiC substrate with high thermal conductivity. By increasing the effective contact interface area between diamond and SiC, the heat conduction efficiency is improved, and at the same time, the insufficient bonding force of the single-plane interface and the expansion of local defects are effectively avoided. It lays the foundation for obtaining high-power, high-frequency SiC / Diamond and GaN / SiC / Diamond wafers for future SiC silicon polar face thinning and high-temperature deposition of GaN on the surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor material preparation, and relates to a preparation method of a high thermal conductivity diamond reinforced silicon carbide substrate. Background technique [0002] Silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), as a wide-bandgap semiconductor, are ideal materials for radio frequency and power devices. In the development of future photovoltaic industry, high-speed train, electric vehicle, 5G radio frequency, satellite communication and radar technology will play an increasingly important role. High strength and hardness, high thermal shock resistance and corrosion resistance make SiC excellent in extreme temperature environments. In addition, as a representative third-generation semiconductor material, SiC can be used as high-power, high-frequency electronic devices in harsh environments by taking advantage of its wide band gap and high dielectric breakdown electric field strength. However, for th...
