Static characteristics of SiC (silicon carbide) lateral p-i-n diodes implemented on semi-insulating substrate without an epitaxial layer are inVestigated. On-axis SiC HPSI (high purity semi-insulating) and VDSI (Vanadium doped semi-insulating) substrates are used to fabricate the lateral p-i-n diode. The space between anode and cathode ($L_{AC}$) is Varied from 5 to $20{\mu}m$ to inVestigate the effect of intrinsic-region length on static characteristics. Maximum breakdown Voltages of HPSI and VDSI are 1117 and 841 V at $L_{AC}=20{\mu}m$, respectiVely. Due to the doped Vanadium ions in VDSI substrate, diffusion length of carriers in the VDSI substrate is less than that of the HPSI substrate. A forward Voltage drop of the diode implemented on VDSI substrate is 12 V at the forward current of $1{\mu}A$, which is higher than 2.5 V of the diode implemented on HPSI substrate.

The change in vanadium amount according to the growth direction of vanadium-doped semi-insulated (SI) SiC single crystals using high-purity SiC powder was investigated. High-purity SiC powder and a porous graphite (PG) inner crucible were placed on opposite sides of SiC seed crystals. SI SiC crystals were grown on 2 inch 6H-SiC Si-face seeds at a temperature of $2,300^{\circ}C$ and growth pressure of 10~30 mbar of argon atmosphere, using the physical vapor transport (PVT) method. The sliced SiC single crystals were polished using diamond slurry. We analyzed the polytype and quality of the SiC crystals using high-resolution X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. The resistivity of the SI SiC crystals was analyzed using contactless resistivity mapping (COREMA) measurements.

본 연구에서는 SiC(Silicon Carbide) 분말의 순도와 결정 성장 후 냉각 속도를 제어하여 PVT(Physical Vapor Transport) 방법으로 성장한 4인치 HPSI(High-Purity Semi-Insulating)-SiC 단결정의 저항 특성을 조사하였다. 순도가 다른 2개의 β-SiC 분말을 사용하였고, 성장 후 냉각 속도를 조절하여 다양한 저항값을 얻었다. 성장된 결정의 투과/흡수 스펙트럼 및 결정 품질은 각각 UV/VIs/NIR 분석과 XRD Rocking curve 분석을 이용하였으며, 비접촉 비저항 분석을 통해 전기적 특성을 조사하여 비저항 특성에 우세한 영향을 미치는 주요 요인을 확인하였다.
