Abstract :
When the conductivity of a silicon carbide (SiC) inversion layer is thermally activated it is confirmed that the activation energy controlling transport is almost inversely proportional to the electron concentration. Simple formulas are then derived For expressing the apparent surface mobility and the threshold voltage. The mobility is proportional to the temperature
