Definitions

  • the invention relates to a SiC semiconductor, and in particular to a p-type SiC semiconductor of low resistance.
  • JP-A-2005-507360 describes the method of obtaining a semi-insulating SiC single crystal of high resistance by employing the combination of deep-energy-level intrinsic defects of high concentration and deep-energy-level acceptors (Ti and B).
  • Ti and B deep-energy-level acceptors
  • a method of manufacturing a p-type SiC single crystal by Al-doping, modified LeIy method (sublimation method) is described in T. L. Staubinger, et al. Mat. Sci. Forum 389-393 (2002) p.131.
  • the crystal growth with high-concentration Al doping can adversely affect the crystallinity.
  • JP-A-2008-100890 describes a manufacturing method that is characterized in that the liquid alloy used when a SiC single crystal is grown by liquid-phase growth method, is a Si-Al-M alloy (M is Ti, for example).
  • M is Ti, for example.

  • the invention provides a p-type SiC semiconductor of low resistance.
  • An aspect of the invention is a p-type SiC semiconductor including a SiC crystal that contains, as impurities, Al and Ti, wherein the atom number concentration of Ti is equal to or less than the atom number concentration of Al.
  • the atom number concentration of Al and the atom number concentration of Ti may satisfy the following relations: (Concentration of Al) ⁇ 5 x 10 18 /cm 3 ; and 0.01% ⁇ (Concentration of Ti)/(Concentration of Al) ⁇ 20%.
  • the atom number concentration of Al and the atom number concentration of Ti may satisfy the following relations: 5 x 10 /cm ⁇ (Concentration of Al) ⁇ 1 x 10 20 /cm 3 ; and 0.01% ⁇ (Concentration of Ti)/(Concentration of Al) ⁇ 20%.

  • a SiC single crystal is caused to contain, as acceptors, Ti as well as Al and the atom number concentration of Ti is equal to or less than the atom number concentration of Al, so that it is possible to reduce the specific resistance as compared to the case where Al alone is added.
  • FIG. 1 is a graph showing the variation of specific resistance with the change in the concentration of Ti for each of the concentrations of Al in a SiC single crystal to which Al and Ti atoms are added according to the invention.
  • the atom number concentration of Al and the atom number concentration of Ti satisfy the following relations: (Concentration of Al) ⁇ 5 x 10 18 /cm 3 ; and 0.01% ⁇ (Concentration of Ti)/(Concentration of Al) ⁇ 20%.
  • the atom number concentration of Al and the atom number concentration of Ti satisfy the following relations: (Concentration of Al) ⁇ 5 x 10 18 /cm 3 ; and 1 x 10 17 /cm 3 ⁇ (Concentration of Ti) ⁇ 1 x 10 18 /cm 3 .

  • Implantation Angle 0 • • ⁇ oo°
  • Implantation Substrate Temperature 500 0 C ⁇ High-Temperature Annealing after Implantation>
  • the atom number concentration of Al and the atom number concentration of Ti are measured by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) for each of the samples into which ions have been implanted. Then, by conducting a Hall-effect measurement by the van der Pauw method, the specific resistance of each sample is determined. The result is collectively shown in Table 1. In Table 1, the specific resistance improvement rates that are obtained using the following equation are also shown.
  • Improvement Rate (%) ⁇ 1 - (p2/pl) ⁇ x 100 pi: Specific resistance ( ⁇ cm) of the sample when Al alone is introduced p2: Specific resistance ( ⁇ -cm) of the sample when Al and Ti are introduced
  • Table 3 shows the ratio (%) of the concentration of Ti to the concentration of Al and Table 4 shows the relations between the respective ratios and the sample numbers.
  • FIG. 1 shows the variation of specific resistance with the change in the concentration of Ti when the concentration of Al is 1 x 10 20 /cm 3 and 5 x 10 20 /cm 3 . It is clearly seen that when the concentration of Al is 1 x 10 20 /cm 3 , the specific resistance monotonously decreases as the concentration of Ti increases. When the concentration of Al is 5 x 10 20 /cm 3 , because the concentration of Al is high and the absolute value of the specific resistance is therefore relatively low even when no Ti is added, the decrease in the specific resistance with the increase in the concentration of Ti is small. However, it is perceived that there is a tendency of gradual decrease as a whole.
  • a p-type SiC semiconductor is provided that is reduced in resistance as compared to the case where Al alone is added.
