Abstract

The thermal oxidation rate constants on both polar faces (Si-face and C-face) of 4H-SiC have been experimentally investigated.The thermal oxidation was performed in horizontal quartz furnace at different temperature for different oxidation time. The growth rate constants were calculated by fitting the experimentally measured curve (X0 versus t/X0) to the frame of Deal and Grove model. It has been observed that the value of A (one rate constant) increases with decreasing oxidation temperature while the slope of curve B (another rate constant) increases with oxidation temperature. The reported work has significance in the development of 4H-SiC oxidation mechanism for device application. The relevant details are discussed and reported in this paper.
