    Abstract: A high-uniformity SiC crystal, a crystal bar, a substrate and a semiconductor device are provided. The SiC crystal is obtained by direct growth through a PVT method without subsequent machining, and includes a facet region and a non-facet region. The facet region is located on an outer-circumference end face of the SiC crystal. A doping concentration change rate of the facet region is 1.5 times or above that of the non-facet region; and/or a carrier concentration change rate of the facet region is 5 times or above that of the non-facet region.

  • Publication number: 20250109525
    Abstract: A high-quality SiC crystal, a crystal bar, a substrate, a preparation method, and a semiconductor device are provided. The SiC crystal contains a facet region and a non-facet region; and the facet region is located on an outer circumference of the SiC crystal, a distance between an edge of the facet region away from the outer circumference and the outer circumference does not exceed 3% of a diameter of the SiC crystal, and the SiC crystal is obtained by adopting a PVT method through direct growth without subsequent processing. In a subsequent processing process of the crystal, the facet region is eliminated, and the situation that the entire crystal bar and a wafer and substrate processed accordingly have no facet region is implemented with a low cutting loss rate.

  • Publication number: 20240109715
    Abstract: A pressure storage type spray pump is provided, which is capable of achieving continuous spraying with a simple and small structure and low cost, and has good safety performance. The spray pump includes a main column and a cylinder body, wherein a fluid channel extending in an axial direction is formed inside the main column, and the cylinder body accommodates a working liquid. The spray pump further includes a one-way valve mechanism, a storage chamber, and an upper elastic mechanism. The upper elastic mechanism displaces towards the maximum compression position when the main column is pressed, so that the storage chamber is in fluid communication with the fluid channel; and the upper elastic mechanism displaces towards the initial position when the main column is released.
