摘要
6H-silicon carbide layers are grown by a liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) process. The layers are doped with boron either by ion implantation or during the LPE process from a B-doped silicon melt. Deep-level transient spectroscopy (DLTS), admittance spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) are used to investigate deep impurity centers. Two electrically active defect centers are detected: the isolated boron acceptor at EB=Ev+0.3eV and the boron-related D-center at ED=Ev+0.58eV. The yellow luminescence observed in these layers is proposed to be due to pair recombination via D-center and nitrogen donor. Formation and origin of the D-center are discussed. © 1990 Springer-Verlag.
