Ohmic contact formation mechanism of Ni on n-type 4H–SiC is proposed by comparing the electrical properties with microstructural change. The ohmic behavior was observed at temperatures higher than 900 °C, but Ni2Si phase, as formerly reported to be responsible for contact, formed after annealing 600 °C. work function and observation graphite phase surface silicide 950 °C support that a number carbon vacancies were produced below playing key role in forming an through reduction effective...

A global model was developed to investigate the densities of negative ions and other species in a low-pressure inductively coupled hydrogen plasma with bi-Maxwellian electron energy distribution. Compared Maxwellian plasma, plasmas have higher populations low-energy electrons highly vibrationally excited molecules that are generated efficiently by high-energy electrons. This leads reaction rate dissociative attachment responsible for ion production. The indicated distribution at low...
