Abstract

ABSTRACT6H silicon carbide wafers were implanted with 40–50 keV aluminum ions to a dose of 1.5 × 1014 – 1.5 × 1016 cm−2 at high temperatures (1100°C–1700°C). The substrate temperature and the implantation dose were varied to investigate the influence of the implantation parameters on the formation of structural defects. Conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high resolution electron microscopy (HREM) techniques were applied to study the defects. We found that for low dose implants {0001} interstitial dislocation loops are formed but for high dose implants aluminum precipitates associated with {0001} half-loops are formed.
