摘要
A non-destructive, absorption measurement based optical method has been developed in order to determine doping type (n- or p-type), doping level and doping level distribution in 4H and 6H silicon carbide (SiC) wafers. The bandgap absorption has been calculated numerically taking into account band filling, band shrinkage and band tailing effects which al e a function of donor and acceptor concentration N-D and N-A, respectively. The numerical results Lire compared with experimental data. A calibration plot of the doping dependence of the absorption of n-type 6H SiC is presented and the application for mapping of the SiC wafer duping level distribution is demonstrated.
