20110165764 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE - A first silicon carbide substrate having a first back-side surface and a second silicon carbide substrate having a second back-side surface are prepared. The first and second silicon carbide substrates are placed so as to expose each of the first and second back-side surfaces in one direction. A connecting portion is formed to connect the first and second back-side surfaces to each other. The step of forming the connecting portion includes a step of forming a growth layer made of silicon carbide on each of the first and second back-side surfaces, using a sublimation method of supplying a sublimate thereto in the one direction. | 07-07-2011 |
20120003811 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE - A first silicon carbide substrate has a first front-side surface and a first side surface. A second silicon carbide substrate has a second front-side surface and a second side surface. The second side surface is disposed such that a gap having an opening between the first and second front-side surfaces of the first and second silicon carbide substrates is disposed between the first side surface and the second side surface. A closing portion is provided to close the gap over the opening. By depositing sublimates from the first and second side surfaces onto the closing portion, a connecting portion is formed to connect the first and second side surfaces to each other so as to close the opening. After the step of forming the connecting portion, the closing portion is removed. | 01-05-2012 |
20120003823 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE - A combined substrate is prepared which has a supporting portion and first and second silicon carbide substrates. The first silicon carbide substrate has a first front-side surface and a first side surface. The second silicon carbide substrate has a second front-side surface and a second side surface. The second side surface is disposed such that a gap having an opening between the first and second front-side surfaces is formed between the first side surface and the second side surface. By introducing melted silicon from the opening into the gap, a silicon connecting portion is formed to connect the first and second side surfaces so as to close the opening. By carbonizing the silicon connecting portion, a silicon carbide connecting portion is formed. | 01-05-2012 |
20120012862 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SILICON CARBIDE SUBSTRATE, SILICON CARBIDE SUBSTRATE, AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A method for manufacturing a silicon carbide substrate includes the steps of: preparing a base substrate made of silicon carbide and a SiC substrate made of single-crystal silicon carbide; and connecting the base substrate and SiC substrate to each other by forming an intermediate layer, which is made of carbon that is a conductor, between the base substrate and the SiC substrate. | 01-19-2012 |
20120015499 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE - A combined substrate is prepared which has a supporting portion and first and second silicon carbide substrates. Between the first and second silicon carbide substrates, a gap having an opening exists. A closing layer for the gap is formed over the opening. The closing layer at least includes a silicon layer. In order to form a cover made of silicon carbide and closing the gap over the opening, the silicon layer is carbonized. By depositing sublimates from the first and second side surfaces of the first and second silicon carbide substrates onto the cover, a connecting portion is formed to close the opening. The cover is removed. | 01-19-2012 |
