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.

According to overseas news, two sources revealed on June 24 that ByteDance is working with US chip design company Broadcom to develop an advanced artificial intelligence (AI) computing processor, which will help ByteDance ensure an adequate supply of high-end chips amid tensions between China and the United States.

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.

Thin film deposition is vital in chip manufacturing, creating micro devices by depositing films under 1 micron thick via CVD, ALD, or PVD. These processes build semiconductor components through alternating conductive and insulating films.

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.

The semiconductor manufacturing process involves eight steps: wafer processing, oxidation, lithography, etching, thin film deposition, interconnection, testing, and packaging. Silicon from sand is processed into wafers, oxidized, patterned, and etched for high-precision circuits.
