摘要
Lifetime measurements are performed on 4H-SiC pin power diodes (6.5 kV). The lifetime values in the base range from 1.1 mu s to 2.1 mu s; these Values demonstrate the high quality of the 4H-SiC epilayer and the optimized device processing. The observed lifetimes are correlated with deep defect centers detected by deep level transient spectroscopy. The role of the Z(1/2)-center as a lifetime killer is discussed.
