Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed the SiC-ink using liquid silicon material and liquid carbon material, and investigated a possibility of its application to power devices. The SiC films were deposited by using the SiC-ink and LVD (liquid vapor deposition) method. The CBM (conduction band minima) and VBM (valence band maxima) were evaluated by the IPES (inverse photoemission spectroscopy) and PYS (photon yield spectroscopy), respectively. As a result, it was confirmed that CBM and VBM were controlled by the carbon ratio in the SiC-ink. Both CBM and VBM shifted with the increase of the carbon ratio so that the band-gap increased. These data indicate that the contact resistance between Ni electrode and P+-SiC region can be reduced by using the SiC film fabricated by SiC-ink. The CTLM-TEG was fabricated to measure the contact resistance between Ni electrode and P+-SiC film using SiC-ink, and the contact resistance of 1.01×10-7Ωcm2 was realized.
