Al Doping from Laser Irradiated Al Film Deposited on 4H-SiC

Article Preview

Abstract:

Al doping of 4H-SiC with high surface concentration and deep depth profile is found to be realized by irradiating single-pulse excimer laser to an Al film deposited on the surface. Optical emission spectra suggest that high-temperature molten Al is produced behind the laser-generated high-density Al plasma and Al is diffused from the molten Al into 4H-SiC. The Al doping depth reaches to ~200 nm by irradiating a single laser pulse. A pn junction diode fabricated by the doping with the molten Al shows on/off ratio over 10 orders of magnitude.
