Abstract

X-ray topography shows that selective KOH etching after CVD growth of n-type epilayers on highly N doped 4H SiC substrates can be used to reliably map pure and mixed Threading Screw Dislocations (TSD). The influence of the mapping grid density and the wafer position in the crystal on the average TSD density are investigated. A reliable mapping of TSD contributed to the development of 100mm SiC wafers with average TSD density down to 200 cm-2.
