Abstract:

Multi-layer metal Ohmic contacts to 4H-SiC are investigated on the N+ion implanted layer with 950℃ annealing in Ar for 25 minutes and the n type epitaxial layer with a carrier concentration of 1.0×1019cm-3 with 1000℃ annealing in N2 for 2 minutes. The specific contact resistances obtained by the transmission line method (TLM) are 1.359×10-5Ω·cm2 and 3.44×10-6Ω·cm2, respectively. SIMS measurements show that the formation of the Ni silicide and the TiC facilitates to make the contacts become more Ohmic after annealing.

Key words: silicon carbide, Ohmic contacts, secondary ion mass spectrometry
