摘要
Open circuit voltage decay method for measuring of excess carrier Lifetime is shown to be effective for in-process checking of ion irradiated power diodes. 2.5 kV/100 A P-i-N diodes irradiated by helium ions with different irradiation energies and doses were used for presentation of capabilities of this method. Differences in carrier dynamics during the OCVD process between unirradiated and irradiated devices were studied by use of the device simulation in ATLAS. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
