This study resumes the status of our knowledge about the formation of extended and intrinsic defects in ion implanted 4H-SiC homo-epitaxial wafers during a high temperature post-implantation annealing in presence of homogeneous heating of the ion implanted wafer. A particular attention is given to the implanted dopant concentrations of interest for the fabrication of 4H-SiC electronic devices. The issue to preserve a high electrical activation and at the same time to avoid the formation of defects and/or to reduce those that have been formed is discussed. The case of the Al ion implanted 4H-SiC is used as example and original results are presented.

Abstract
This study resumes the status of our knowledge about the formation of extended and intrinsic defects in ion implanted 4H-SiC homo-epitaxial wafers during a high temperature post-implantation annealing in presence of homogeneous heating of the ion implanted wafer. A particular attention is given to the implanted dopant concentrations of interest for the fabrication of 4H-SiC electronic devices. The issue to preserve a high electrical activation and at the same time to avoid the formation of defects and/or to reduce those that have been formed is discussed. The case of the Al ion implanted 4H-SiC is used as example and original results are presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
