Title:
SEED CRYSTAL FOR SIC SINGLE-CRYSTAL GROWTH, SIC SINGLE CRYSTAL, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SIC SINGLE CRYSTAL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/076893
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A seed crystal for SiC single-crystal growth includes a facet formation region containing a {0001}-plane uppermost portion and n (n >= 3) planes provided enclosing the periphery of the facet formation region. The seed crystal for SiC single-crystal growth satisfies the relationships represented by formula (a): Bk k-1 <= cos-1(sin(2.3 degrees)/sinCk), formula (b): Bk k <= cos-1(sin(2.3 degrees)/sinCk), and formula (c): min(Ck) <= 20 degrees. In the formulas, Ck is an offset angle of a k-th plane, Bk k-1 is an angle defined by an offset downstream direction of the k-th plane and a (k-1)-th ridge line, and Bk k is an angle defined by the offset downstream direction of the k-th plane and a k-th ridge line.
