Abstract
The present invention relates to systems and methods for growing bulk semiconductor single crystals, and more specifically, for growing a bulk semiconductor single crystals, such as silicon carbide, based on physical vapor transport. A sublimation system for growing at least one single crystal of a semiconductor material by means of a sublimation growing process comprises a crucible () having a longitudinal axis () and comprising a fixing means for at least one seed crystal () and at least one source material compartment () for containing a source material (); a heating system being formed to generate an irregular temperature field around a circumference of the crucible at one or more defined heights along the longitudinal axis of the crucible; a rotary drive that is operable to cause a rotational movement of the fixing means around the longitudinal axis relative to the heating system.
