  • Publication number: 20250092564
    Abstract: Disclosed is a device for preparing a silicon carbide crystal including a crucible and a crystal expansion guide assembly. The crucible includes a crucible body and a crucible cover fixing a seed and covering the crucible body. The crystal expansion guide assembly includes a frame member and a tubular core member. The frame member is fixed to the crucible body, located between the crucible cover and a raw material accommodated in the crucible body, and provided with a through hole with a diameter greater than a diameter of a growth surface of the seed. The tubular core member is mechanically connected to an inner wall of the through hole. During a crystal growth process, the tubular core member falls off due to contact with a growth front of a crystal. The frame member does not react with the crystal. Thus, a large-sized crystal ingot with high quality can be obtained.
