Interfacial electrical and chemical properties of deposited SiO2 layers in lateral implanted 4H-SiC MOSFETs subjected to different nitridations

Patrick Fiorenza, Corrado Bongiorno, Filippo Giannazzo +4

In this paper, SiO2 layers deposited on 4H-SiC and subjected to different post deposition annealing (PDA) in NO and N2O were studied to identify the key factors influencing the cha…

Inter-diffusion, melting and reaction interplay in Ni/4H-SiC under excimer laser annealing

Salvatore Sanzaro, Corrado Bongiorno, Paolo Badalà +5

We investigated the complex interaction between a nickel layer and a 4H-SiC substrate under UV-laser irradiation since the early stages of the atomic inter-diffusion. An exhaustive…
