The main difference between epitaxy and atomic layer deposition (ALD) lies in their film growth mechanisms and operating conditions. Epitaxy refers to the process of growing a crystalline thin film on a crystalline substrate with a specific orientation relationship, maintaining the same or similar crystal structure. In contrast, ALD is a deposition technique that involves exposing a substrate to different chemical precursors in sequence to form a thin film one atomic layer at a time.

Diamond, a potential fourth-generation "ultimate semiconductor," is gaining attention in semiconductor substrates due to its exceptional hardness, thermal conductivity, and electrical properties. While its high cost and production challenges limit its use, CVD is the preferred method. Despite doping and large-area crystal challenges, diamond holds promise.

SiC has high hardness, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for semiconductor manufacturing. CVD SiC coating is created through chemical vapor deposition, providing high thermal conductivity, chemical stability, and a matching lattice constant for epitaxial growth. Its low thermal expansion and high hardness ensure durability and precision, making it essential in applications like wafer carriers, preheating rings, and more. VeTek Semiconductor specializes in custom SiC coatings for diverse industry needs.

In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, as device size continues to shrink, the deposition technology of thin film materials has posed unprecedented challenges. Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), as a thin film deposition technology that can achieve precise control at the atomic level, has become an indispensable part of semiconductor manufacturing. This article aims to introduce the process flow and principles of ALD to help understand its important role in advanced chip manufacturing.
