Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In high voltage and high current power devices, the presence of dislocations can adversely affect device performance and device lifetime. The purpose of this study is to establish dislocation detection and classification technology necessary to reduce dislocations in power semiconductor material Ga2O3. In this study, we evaluated the crystallinity of Ga2O3 single crystals by using multiple techniques, such as XRD, XRT, Raman and FIB-TEM. Based on the results obtained, we established a chemical etching method that can quickly and accurately detect and classify various types of dislocations in a short period of time. Furthermore, the accuracy of the etching dislocation detection method was proved by X-ray crystallography technique and electron microscope observation.
