| Research Abstract |
In this work, we introduced defects in 4H-SiC samples, and then observed deep levels and carrier lifetimes in the samples. The results show that deep levels were introduced in n-type samples by 2 MeV electron irradiation, and the deep levels would originate from carbon-antisite-vacancy related defects. Surface recombination does not significantly effect on the carrier lifetime. On the other hand, p-type samples irradiated with 160 keV electrons show deep levels from carbon-related complex defects and the deep levels possibly act as a recombination center.
