The density and light-scattering intensity of oxygen precipitates in CZ silicon crystals are measured by IR light-scattering tomography. The numerical data clarified through the measurements are discussed in relation to the amount of precipitated oxygen. The results obtained here correspond well with the theoretical analysis that oxygen precipitates cause light to scatter. The information obtained...
To realize high-performance silicon carbide (SiC) power devices, low-resistance ohmic contacts to p-type SiC must be developed. To reduce the ohmic contact resistance, reduction of the barrier height at metal/SiC interfaces or increase in the doping concentration in the SiC substrates is needed. Since the reduction of barrier height is extremely difficult, the increase in the Al doping concentrati...
In this paper, using a fully-coupled, three-dimensional electro-thermal device simulator, we study the mechanism of efficiency degradation at high current operation in planar GaN-based light emitting diodes (LED). In particular, the improvement of the efficiency degradation using thicker conductive GaN substrates has been demonstrated. First, it is found that local Joule heating inside thin conduc...
We present a non-contact method for the determination of the thermal response time of temperature sensors embedded in wafers. In this method, a flash lamp illuminates a spot on the wafer in periodic pulses; the spot is on the opposite side from the sensor under test. The thermal time constant of the sensor is then obtained from measurement of its temporal response, together with a theoretical mode...
Using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) at 13.56 MHz, a seed layer is fabricated at the initial growth stage of the hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon germanium (μc-Si1−xGex:H) i-layer. The effects of seeding processes on the growth of μc-Si1−xGex:H i-layers and the performance of μc-Si1−xGex:H p—i—n single junction solar cells are investigated. By applying this seeding method, ...
A contactless non-destructive imaging method for spatially resolved dopant concentration, [2.2] N d, and electrical resistivity, ρ, of n- and p-type silicon wafers using lock-in carrierography images at various laser irradiation intensities is presented. Amplitude and phase information from wafer sites with known resistivity was employed to derive a calibration factor for accurate determination of...
The recent advances in epitaxial SiC films' growth on Si are overviewed. The basic classical methods currently used for SiC films' growth are discussed and their advantages and disadvantages are explored. The basic idea and the theoretical background for a new method of the synthesis of epitaxial SiC films on Si are given. It will be shown that the new method is significantly different from the cl...
