Abstrakt: In this work we present the epitaxial growth of 4H-SiC on 100mm 4° off-axis substrates grown in a multi-wafer CVD planetary reactor. Highly uniform epitaxial layers having thickness and doping uniformities of 1.7% and 1.4% respectively were grown in the production reactor with optimized process conditions at 8µm/hr and 30µm/hr growth rates. Process optimizations resulted in epitaxial layers with surface roughness (RMS) of 0.32nm. Epitaxial layers with a thickness of 53µm grown with a 30µm/hr growth process had minimal degradation in surface roughness (RMS of 0.39nm).
