BS IEC 63068-1:2019 pdf free.Semiconductor devices – Non-destructive recognition criteria of defects in silicon carbide homoepitaxial wafer for power devices Part 1: Classification of defects.
This part of lEC 63068 gives a classification of defects in as-grown 4H-SiC (Silicon Carbide)epitaxial layers.The defects are classified on the basis of their crystallographic structures andrecognized by non-destructive detection methods including bright-field OM(opticalmicroscopy),PL (photoluminescence), and XRT (X-ray topography) images.

3.1silicon carbidesic semiconductor crystal composed of silicon and carbon,which exhibits a large number ofpolytypes such as 3C, 4H,and 6H.
The terminology, schematic illustrations, plan-view observation images of each defect areshown in 4.2.2 to 4.2.15.All the figures show the following:
a) a schematic illustration of each defect in the homoepitaxial wafer;
b) a schematic illustration of the plan-view observation image of each defect;c) a bright-field optical microscope image of each figure;
d) a photoluminescence mapping image of each figure;e) an X-ray topographic image of each figure.
All the images are obtained from 4H-SiC homoepitaxial wafers with an off-cut direction of [1120] and an off-cut angle of 4.The photoluminescence mapping image was acquired with a340 nm excitation at room temperature, and the luminescence wavelength detected to obtainthe image is indicated in a note within each text describing the relevant defect. All the X-raytopographic images were taken under g = 1128 diffraction condition.
4.2.2 Point defect
The class of point defect means a crystal defect that occurs at or around a single lattice site.
NOTE Point defects cannot be detected using optical inspection and photoluminescence methods, and thus theyare not treated in this document.BS IEC 63068-1 pdf download.BS IEC 63068-1 pdf download.
