Abstract

We investigated triple ion implanted 4H-SiC BJT with etched extrinsic base regions. To remove the defects induced by ion implantation between emitter and base regions, the characteristics of triple ion implanted 4H-SiC BJT were significantly improved. Maximum common current gain was improved from 1.7 to 7.5.
