Abstract :
Summary form only given. AlN films were deposited on silicon carbide wafers by RPP (Reactive Pulse Plasma) method. Basic properties of the AlN layers and AlN-SiC interface have been investigated. We have extracted electrical properties from current-voltage characteristics, investigated surface structure by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), chemical composition of AlN layers by secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) and layer thickness by spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements.
