Abstract
A film structure including a silicon carbide film formed on a surface of an aluminum nitride substrate. The substrate has a first base plane, a second base plane positioned downward with respect to the first base plane and a step plane arranged in an intersecting direction between the first base plane and the second base plane. One or more chamfered planes are arranged between the first base plane and the step plane so as to form a plurality of corner portions each having an angle larger than 130°. Alternatively, at least one round portion having a curvature radium of larger than 0.05 mm is arranged between the first base plane and the step plane.
Claims7
A film structure comprising a substrate made of aluminum nitride and a silicon carbide film formed on the substrate by a chemical vapor deposition method, wherein the substrate further comprises a first base plane, a second base plane positioned downwardly from the first base plane and a step plane arranged in an intersecting direction between the first base plane and the second base plane, and the silicon carbide film is formed on at least portions of the first base plane, the step plane and the second base plane of the substrate, wherein one or more chamfered planes are arranged between the first base plane and the step plane to form a plurality of corner portions each having an angle larger than 130°.
