A P-type silicon carbide (SiC) wafer is a semiconductor substrate that is doped with impurities to create a P-type (positive) conductivity. Silicon carbide is a wide-bandgap semiconductor material that offers exceptional electrical and thermal properties, making it suitable for high-power and high-temperature electronic devices.

In semiconductor fabrication, etching is one of the major steps, along with photolithography and thin-film deposition. It involves removing unwanted materials from the surface of a wafer using chemical or physical methods. This step is carried out after coating, photolithography, and developing. It is used to remove the exposed thin film material, leaving only the desired portion of the wafer, and then removing the excess photoresist. These steps are repeated numerous times to create complex integrated circuits.

Tantalum carbide coating is an important high-strength, corrosion-resistant and chemically stable high-temperature structural material with a melting point of up to 4273 °C, one of the several compounds with the highest temperature resistance. It has excellent high-temperature mechanical properties, resistance to high-speed airflow scouring, ablation resistance, and good chemical and mechanical compatibility with graphite and carbon/carbon composites. Therefore, in the epitaxial process of GaN LEDs and SiC power devices such as MOCVD, TaC coating has excellent acid and alkali resistance to H2, HCl, NH3, which can completely protect the graphite substrate material and purify the growth environment.

Silicon Carbide generally uses the PVT method, with a temperature of more than 2000 degrees, a long processing cycle, and low output, so the cost of Silicon Carbide substrates is very high.

Wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductors such as Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) are expected to play an increasingly important role in power electronic devices. They offer several advantages over traditional Silicon (Si) devices, including higher efficiency, power density, and switching frequency. Ion implantation is the primary method for achieving selective doping in Si devices. However, there are some challenges when applying it to wide bandgap devices. In this article, we will focus on some of these challenges and summarize their potential applications in GaN power devices.
