Abstract
A method for manufacturing an SiC substrate includes: performing a CMP treatment on an SiC substrate; after the CMP treatment, capturing an image of a surface of the SiC substrate to detect a scratch; determining the SiC substrate as a good article when a length L of the scratch having a contrast value equal to or larger than a threshold value is not more than π(D/2)/A×F/100, wherein the scratch having the contrast value equal to or larger than the threshold value in the image serves as a starting point of an epitaxial defect, a diameter of the SiC substrate is represented by D, a length of a long side of a device chip to be formed on the SiC substrate is represented by A, and an allowable defective rate caused by scratches is represented by F.
