3-12. Silicon Droplets
Silicon droplets can appear as either small mounds or depressions in the wafer surface. Normally absent, but if present are largely concentrated at perimeter of wafer. If present, estimate the % of speci ed area affected.

In solid state physics, a band gap, also called an energy gap or bandgap, is an energy range in a solid where no electron states can exist. In graphs of the electronic band structure of solids, the band gap generally refers to the energy [...]

3-6. Edge Chips
Areas where material has been unintentionally removed from the wafer.Do not confuse fractures in epi crown with edge chips.

SILICON CARBIDE (SiC) materials are currently metamorphosing from research and development into a market driven manufacturing product. SiC substrates are currently used as the base for a large fraction of the world production of green, blue, and ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Emerging markets for [...]

2-30.Dopant
A dopant, also called a doping agent, is a trace impurity element that is inserted into a substance (in very low concentrations) in order to alter the electrical properties or the opticalproperties of the substance. In the case of crystalline substances, the atoms of [...]

5-4-3 Growth of Hexagonal Polytype SiC Wafers
In the late 1970s, Tairov and Tzvetkov established the basic principles of a modified seeded sublimation growth process for growth of 6H-SiC. This process, also referred to as the modified Lely process,was a breakthrough for SiC in that [...]
