Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising material for high power devices with low energy loss. However we have never completely understood crystal defects in SiC which influence on device performance, therefore we need to study for crystal defects. Although studies for deep-levels in p-type 4H-SiC have been reported, deep-levels acting as recombination centers have been seldom reported. In this work, we have measured deep-levels in (0001) Si face epitaxial p-type 4H-SiC layers with the current deep-level transient spectroscopy (I-DLTS) method. A part of the samples were irradiated by electrons in order to introduce defects. As a result, we found electron irradiation to p-type 4H-SiC would create complex defects behaving as recombination centers rather than the carbon vacancy.
