Abstract
This paper reports the progress of the thick epitaxy development at Dow Corning. Epiwafers with thickness of 50 – 100 m have been grown on 4° off-axis 76mm 4H SiC substrates. Smooth surface with RMS roughness below 1nm and defect density down to 2 cm-2 are achieved for 80 - 100 m thick epiwafers. Long carrier lifetime of 2 – 4 s are routinely obtained, and low BPD density in the range of 50 down to below 10 cm-2 is confirmed. High voltage JBS diodes have been successfully fabricated on these wafers with thick epitaxial layers.
