Abstract

MicroRaman spectroscopy is used for characterizing defects in large SiC crystals with micrometer spatial resolution. The ability to identify microscopic inclusions of polytypes different than the crystal matrix is demonstrated; silicon and carbon inclusions and disorder effects are found in micropipes. A study of the Longitudinal Optic Phonon Plasmon Coupled (LOPC) Raman modes allowed to obtain local fluctuations of the net donor concentration, ND-NA, and the electron mobility around defects, which allowed impurity gettering effects to be observed.
