Abstract

A semiconductor processing component has an outer surface portion comprised of silicon carbide, the outer surface portion having a skin impurity level and a bulk impurity level. The skin impurity level is average impurity level from 0 nm to 100 nm of depth into the outer surface portion, the bulk impurity level is measured at a depth of at least 3 microns into the outer surface portion, and the skin impurity level is not greater than 80% of the bulk impurity level.
