Abstract

Provided is an SiC substrate evaluation that includes irradiating a first surface of an SiC substrate which is cut out from an SiC ingot with excitation light before an epitaxial film is laminated on the first surface to perform photoluminescence measurement.

Claims (4)

1. An SiC epitaxial wafer comprising:

an SiC substrate; and

an epitaxial film which is laminated on a first surface of the SiC substrate,

wherein a region where an intensity of photoluminescence caused by impurities becomes higher than an intensity of photoluminescence caused by an SiC band end is equal to or less than 50% of a total area of the first surface in the first surface of the SiC substrate.
