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.

High purity: The silicon epitaxial layer grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has extremely high purity, better surface flatness and lower defect density than traditional wafers.

With the development of the solar photovoltaic industry, diffusion furnaces and LPCVD furnaces are the main equipment for the production of solar cells, which directly affect the efficient performance of solar cells. Based on the comprehensive product performance and usage cost, silicon carbide ceramic materials have more advantages in the field of solar cells than quartz materials. The application of silicon carbide ceramic materials in the photovoltaic industry can greatly help photovoltaic enterprises reduce auxiliary material investment costs, improve product quality and competitiveness. The future trend of silicon carbide ceramic materials in the photovoltaic field is mainly towards higher purity, stronger load-bearing capacity, higher loading capacity, and lower cost.

In the growth of SiC and AlN single crystals using the physical vapor transport (PVT) method, crucial components such as the crucible, seed holder, and guide ring play a vital role. As depicted in Figure 2 [1], during the PVT process, the seed crystal is positioned in the lower temperature region, while the SiC raw material is exposed to higher temperatures (above 2400 ℃).

The article explains the temperature gradient in a single-crystal furnace. It covers the static and dynamic heat fields during crystal growth, the solid-liquid interface, and the temperature gradient's role in solidification.

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.
