Influence of Shallow Pits and Device Design of 4H-SiC VDMOS Transistors on In-Line Defect Analysis by Photoluminescence and Differential Interference Contrast Mapping
Beschreibung:
<jats:p>In this study, UV Photoluminescence (UVPL) and Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) mapping was applied for process control of a 1.2 kV 4H-SiC VDMOS fabrication process at different process stages in order to investigate the influence of shallow pits on the electrical behavior of the devices. In particular, it could be shown that UVPL and DIC mapping allows the correlation of shallow pits and the occurrence of darker regions in the UVPL images and distinguishing differently implanted regions at distinct process stages. By comparing the darker regions of the UVPL scan with the electrical blocking characteristics of the associated devices a direct correlation between the occurrence of shallow pits and the reduction of the blocking capability of the devices could be observed.</jats:p>
