Development of the Novel Electron Bombardment Anneal System (EBAS) for SiC Post Ion Implantation Anneal

Article Preview

Abstract:

We develop the rapid thermal anneal system of the implanted SiC, Electron Bombardment Anneal System (EBAS), which is able to heat up to 1900 oC with a rate of 320 oC/min in vacuum. Using this novel system, the annealing of N+ implanted SiC samples (total dose: 2.4 x 1015 cm-2, thickness: 220 nm) at 1900 oC for 0.5 min results in a low sheet resistance of 1.39 x 103 ohm/sq. with extremely low roughness of the surface (RMS value: 0.32 nm). It is also demonstrated that EBAS can anneal the sample with low electric power consumption.
