4H-SiC Wafers Studied by X-Ray Absorption and Raman Scattering

Article Preview

Abstract:

Synchrotron radiation X-ray absorption and UV 325 nm excitation Raman scattering- photoluminescence (PL) have been employed to investigate a series of 4H-SiC wafers, including bulk, epitaxial single or multiple layer structures by chemical vapor deposition. Significant results on the atomic bonding and PL-Raman properties are obtained from these comparative studies.
