The article analyzes the specific challenges faced by the CVD TaC coating process for SiC single crystal growth during semiconductor processing, such as material source and purity control, process parameter optimization, coating adhesion, equipment maintenance and process stability, environmental protection and cost control, as well as the corresponding industry solutions.

With the growing demand for SiC materials in power electronics, optoelectronics and other fields, the development of SiC single crystal growth technology will become a key area of ​​scientific and technological innovation. As the core of SiC single crystal growth equipment, thermal field design will continue to receive extensive attention and in-depth research.

Silicon carbide substrates have many defects and cannot be processed directly. A specific single crystal thin film needs to be grown on them through an epitaxial process to make chip wafers. This thin film is the epitaxial layer. Almost all silicon carbide devices are realized on epitaxial materials. High-quality silicon carbide homogeneous epitaxial materials are the basis for the development of silicon carbide devices. The performance of epitaxial materials directly determines the realization of the performance of silicon carbide devices.

Silicon carbide (SiC)'s Key growth methods include PVT, TSSG, and HTCVD, each with distinct advantages and challenges. Carbon-based thermal field materials like insulation systems, crucibles, TaC coatings, and porous graphite enhance crystal growth by providing stability, thermal conductivity, and purity, essential for SiC's precise fabrication and application.

SiC and GaN are wide bandgap semiconductors with advantages over silicon, such as higher breakdown voltages, faster switching speeds, and superior efficiency. SiC is better for high-voltage, high-power applications due to its higher thermal conductivity, while GaN excels in high-frequency applications thanks to its superior electron mobility.

Etching technology in semiconductor manufacturing often encounters problems such as loading effect, micro-groove effect and charging effect, which affect product quality. Improvement solutions include optimizing plasma density, adjusting reaction gas composition, improving vacuum system efficiency, designing reasonable lithography layout, and selecting appropriate etching mask materials and process conditions.
