Abstract

Commercial n-type 4H-SiC wafers were implanted with doses of MeV alpha particles, high enough to cause majority carrier modification. Analysis of infrared reflectivity spectra shows that the implanted crystals can be divided into three layers: a surface layer of about 30 nm followed by a compensation layer where the energy transfer of the incident particles is low and an overdoping layer in the region of maximum defect production, i.e. near the theoretical mean range of ions Rp
