Ni(Al)-SiC-Interfaces studied by Transmission Electron Microscopy — •Alexander Alexewicz1, Hartmut Bracht1, Kathrin Rüschenschmidt2, and Roland Rupp21Institut für Materialphysik, WWU Münster — 2Infineon Technologies AG Villach

The development of a reliable, low-ohmic contact between a metallic conductor and a p-doped SiC-semiconductor is not yet controllable. An empirical approach is the use of nickel as metal-contact. SiC-Wafers with NiAl-layers of two different thicknesses (40 and 150 nm) on top were annealed at 980°C. For understanding the behaviour of the involved elements, analyses of the microstructure in the contact area have been performed. High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) gives a representation of the atomic structure on a nanometer scale. In order to identify the silicide, which is formed in the layer, and to detect the aluminium distribution, Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDX) is used. The released carbon as well as the content of oxygen is localized by Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (EELS).
