Suppression of stacking fault expansion in a 4H-SiC epitaxial layer by proton irradiation
Abstract SiC bipolar degradation, which is caused by stacking fault expansion from basal plane dislocations in a SiC epitaxial layer or near the interface between the epitaxial layer and the substrate, is one of the critical problems inhibiting widespread usage of high-voltage SiC bipolar devices. I...
