The development of high-powered blue and UV LEDs has enabled the creation of full-color LED TV displays, as well as white LED automotive and domestic lighting. These LEDs are based on Gallium Nitride, which is deposited on substrate wafers supported by CVD SiC-coated graphite susceptor using the MOCVD process.

In traditional silicon power device fabrication, high-temperature diffusion and ion implantation stand as the primary methods for dopant control, each with its advantages and disadvantages. Typically, high-temperature diffusion is characterized by its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, isotropic dopant distribution profiles, and lower introduction of lattice damage. Conversely, ion implantation, though complex and costly, enables precise independent control over dopant concentration and depth but introduces a significant number of point defects and extended defects into the substrate.

The tray (base) that supports SiC wafers, also known as a "susceptor," is a core component of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. And what exactly is this susceptor that carries the wafers?

Currently, many semiconductor devices employ mesa device structures, which are predominantly created through two types of etching: wet etching and dry etching. While the simple and rapid wet etching plays a significant role in semiconductor device fabrication, it has inherent drawbacks such as isotropic etching and poor uniformity, which result in limited control when transferring small-sized patterns. Dry etching, however, with its high anisotropy, good uniformity, and repeatability, has become prominent in semiconductor device fabrication processes. The term “dry etching” broadly refers to any non-wet etching technology used for removing surface materials and transferring micro and nano patterns, including laser etching, plasma etching, and chemical vapor etching. The dry etching discussed in this text specifically pertains to the narrow application of processes using plasma discharge—either physical or chemical—to modify material surfaces.
