  • Description: Using a combination of photoluminescence and electrical characterization, defects in the epitaxial layer of unipolar 4H-SiC power devices were matched to device characteristics and statistically analyzed. In-grown triangles had no significant effect on diode and VDMOS blocking or conduction mode, while surface triangles lead to high leakage currents even below 1 V reverse bias.
