A vapor deposition device is provided that can suppress an influence on an epitaxial layer which is caused by a position of a lift pin without adjusting an upper and lower heating ratio of a wafer. A reaction chamber is provided with a susceptor on which a carrier is placed, and a carrier lift pin which moves the carrier vertically relative to the susceptor; and the carrier lift pin is installed outside of an outer edge of the wafer when a state where the carrier supporting the wafer is mounted on the susceptor is viewed in a plan view.

A recess and a recess are formed at places where a threading dislocation and a threading dislocation reach a surface of a third semiconductor layer. A through-hole and a through-hole are formed in a second semiconductor layer under places of the recess and the recess, the through-hole and the through-hole extending through the second semiconductor layer. A first semiconductor layer is oxidized through the recess, the recess, the through-hole, and the through-hole to form an insulation film that covers a lower surface of the second semiconductor layer. The third semiconductor layer is subjected to crystal regrowth.

An apparatus for growing semiconductor wafers, in particular of silicon carbide, wherein a chamber houses a collection container and a support or susceptor arranged over the container. The support is formed by a frame surrounding an opening accommodating a plurality of arms and a seat. The frame has a first a second surface, opposite to each other, with the first surface of the frame facing the support. The arms are formed by cantilever bars extending from the frame into the opening, having a maximum height smaller than the frame, and having at the top a resting edge. The resting edges of the arms define a resting surface that is at a lower level than the second surface of the frame. The seat has a bottom formed by the resting surface.
