In this work, pulsed-laser-based tempering was applied for post-implant annealing of n-type N-doped 4H-SiC in order to electrically activate the dopants and to rebuild the crystal structure. The annealing was performed by a frequency-tripled Nd:YVO4 laser with a pulse duration of 60 ns. To evaluate the effects of post-implant annealing, JBS diodes were electrically characterized. The results were compared with implanted, not post-annealed JBS diodes. The electrical measurements showed a significant on-state voltage drop of 40 mV at 6 A for post-implant laser annealed diodes compared to not post-implant annealed diodes.

In this work, a partial amorphization is introduced to form a Nickel silicide ohmic contact for 4H-SiC bottom electrode. In a conventional Nickel silicide electrode, a carbon agglomeration at the silicide/SiC interface has been occured, and contant resistance between Ni silicide and SiC substrate became larger. For the reduction of the contact resistance, the partial amorphization of surface of SiC substrate was introduced. By this partial amorphization, the space position of the carbon agglomeration is controlled, and contact resistance can be reduced. As a result, with an amorphous 100 nm line pattern, a reliable contact resistance of 1.9×10-3Ωcm2was realized.

Based on finite elements method, thermal simulations were conducted to reproduce a laser annealing of several common metals deposited on 4H-SiC. We estimated the temperature reached at the metal/4H-SiC interface to check the possibility to achieve ohmic contact formation through laser annealing. An optimization of Al/Ti/4H-SiC stacking was also considered. Simulations highlighted the low temperature of the non-irradiated SiC face that allows using grinded wafer.
