Abstract

See full text

A method for manufacturing a SiC epitaxial wafer includes: a first step of, by supplying a Si supply gas and a C supply gas, performing a first epitaxial growth on a SiC bulk substrate with a 4H—SiC(0001) having an off-angle of less than 5° as a main surface at a first temperature of 1480° C. or higher and 1530° C. or lower; a second step of stopping the supply of the Si supply gas and the C supply gas and increasing a temperature of the SiC bulk substrate from the first temperature to a second temperature; and a third step of, by supplying the Si supply gas and the C supply gas, performing a second epitaxial growth on the SiC bulk substrate having the temperature increased in the second step at the second temperature.
