Aluminum Implantation in 4H-SiC: Physical and Electrical Properties

Article Preview

Abstract:

For this study, 4H SiC samples were implanted with aluminum at room temperature, 200°C and 600°C with different energies, ranging from 30 to 380 keV, for a total dose of 4x1015 cm 2, to create a “box-like” profile. To activate dopants, samples were then isochronally annealed from 1650°C to 1850°C during 30min. The lowest specific contact resistance achieved, evaluated to 1.3x10-5 Ω.cm2, has been obtained for the 200°C implanted sample annealed at 1850°C. For this condition, Scanning Capacitance Microscopy study has proved that the dopant activity is quite homogeneous in opposition with the samples implanted at RT and 600°C.
