摘要
A thick film epitaxial growth technique has been demonstrated, based on rapid crystallization during a physical vapor transport process, capable of 'filling up' the micropipes in SIC substrates by initiating crystal growth inside the micropipe. Using this technique it is possible to 'repair' or 'heal' commercially available SiC substrates dominated by micropipes, to obtain micropipe-free wafer surfaces which can be used as a starting substrate for device processing.
