Structural Characterization of Prismatic Stacking Faults of Two Types of Carrot Defects in 4H-SiC Epi Wafers
Keyword(s):
Two types of carrot defects with and without a shallow pit were found by mirror projection electron microscopy (MPJ) inspection in 4H-SiC epi wafer. Surface morphology and cross-sectional structure of prismatic stacking faults (PSFs) were investigated using MPJ and atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). The depths of the surface grooves due to the PSFs, the stacking sequences around the PSFs and the structure of the Frank-type stacking faults which were connected to the PSFs were different. We discuss the difference between the two types of carrot defects.
