SiC egykristály növesztő kemence 6 és 8 hüvelykes kristályokhoz PVT, Lely és TSSG módszerekkel

High-temperature SiC single crystal growth furnace for 6-inch and 8-inch ingot production using PVT, Lely and TSSG methods with precise thermal and process control.

Termék áttekintés

The ZMSH SiC Single Crystal Growth Furnace is a high-temperature crystal growth system engineered for 6-inch and 8-inch silicon carbide single crystal production.
The furnace supports multiple mature growth technologies, including Physical Vapor Transport (PVT), Lely, and Temperature Gradient (TSSG) methods, enabling flexible process selection according to crystal size, polytype, and production targets.

The system adopts graphite resistance heating and operates under a controlled vacuum and inert gas atmosphere. By precisely regulating temperature gradients, chamber pressure, and gas flow, the furnace provides a stable environment for consistent SiC sublimation, transport, and recrystallization, ensuring reliable ingot quality for semiconductor-grade applications.

Designed for industrial-scale operation, the furnace emphasizes process stability, repeatability, and long-term reliability in SiC crystal manufacturing.

Kristálynövekedési képesség

The furnace is capable of growing multiple SiC crystal polytypes, including:

  • Conductive 4H-SiC

  • Semi-insulating 4H-SiC

  • Other polytypes such as 6H, 2H, and 3C

Among these, 4H-SiC, which is widely used in power semiconductor devices, has been repeatedly and successfully grown using ZMSH furnaces in customer production environments.
Independent control of axial and radial temperature gradients helps reduce thermal stress, suppress defect formation, and improve effective crystal thickness.
