摘要: The effects of thermal annealing process on the interface in p+-Si/n-SiC heterojunctions fabricated by using surface-activated bonding are investigated. It is found measuring their current-voltage (I-V) characteristics that reverse-bias current and ideality factor decreased to 2.98 × 10−6 mA/cm2 1.03, respectively, junctions at 1000 °C. Observation transmission electron microscopy indicates an amorphous layer with a thickness ∼6 nm formed unannealed interface, which vanishes after No structural defects observed even such high temperature.
