4h-N 100um Silicon Carbide Abrasive Powder For SIC Crystal Growth
Abstract
Silicon carbide (SiC), a third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor, dominates high-temperature, high-frequency, and high-power markets including EVs, 5G, and renewable energy. Silicon Powder for SiC is a specialized ultra-pure silicon source engineered for SiC crystal growth and device fabrication. Produced via advanced plasma-assisted CVD technology, it delivers:
- Ultra-high purity: Metal impurities ≤1 ppm, oxygen ≤5 ppm (meeting ISO 10664-1 standards).
- Tailorable particle size: D50 range of 0.1–5 μm with narrow distribution (PDI <0.3).
- Superior reactivity: Spherical particles enhance chemical activity, boosting SiC growth rates by 15–20%.
- Environmental compliance: RoHS 2.0/REACH-certified, non-toxic, and zero residue risk.
Unlike conventional metallurgical silicon powders, our product employs nanoscale dispersion and plasma purification to reduce defect densities, enabling efficient production of 8-inch+ SiC wafers.

SiC powder Applications
1. SiC Crystal Growth
- Process: PVT (Vapor Transport)/LPE (Liquid Phase Epitaxy)
- Role: High-purity Si source reacts with carbon precursors (C₂H₂/CH₄) at >2000°C to form SiC nuclei.
- Benefits: Low oxygen content minimizes grain boundary defects; uniform particle size improves growth rate by 15–20%.
2. MOCVD Epitaxial Deposition
- Process: Metal-Organic CVD (MOCVD)
- Role: Doping source for n-type/p-type SiC layers.
- Benefits: Ultra-pure material prevents epitaxial layer contamination, achieving electron trap density <10¹⁴ cm⁻³.
3. CMP Polishing
- Process: Chemical Mechanical Planarization
- Role: Reacts with SiC substrate to form soluble SiO₂ for surface smoothing.
- Benefits: Spherical particles reduce scratching risk; polishing speed increases 3x vs. alumina slurries.
4. Renewable Energy & Photovoltaics
- Applications: Holes transporting layers in perovskite solar cells, solid-state electrolyte additives.
- Benefits: High SSA enhances material dispersion, reducing interfacial resistance.

SiC Powder FAQ
Q: How does silicon purity impact SiC device performance?
A: Impurities (e.g., Al, Na) create deep-level defects, increasing carrier recombination. Our silicon powder (<0.5 ppm metals) reduces RDS(on) in 6-inch SiC MOSFETs by 10–15%.
