Semi-insulating silicon carbide without vanadium domination

A semi-insulating bulk single crystal of silicon carbide is disclosed that has a resistivity of at least 5000 OMEGA-cm at room temperature and a concentration of trapping elements that create states at least 700 meV from the valence or conduction band that is below the amounts that will affect the r...

Zusammenfassung:A semi-insulating bulk single crystal of silicon carbide is disclosed that has a resistivity of at least 5000 OMEGA-cm at room temperature and a concentration of trapping elements that create states at least 700 meV from the valence or conduction band that is below the amounts that will affect the resistivity of the crystal, preferably below detectable levels. A method of forming the crystal is also disclosed, along with some resulting devices that take advantage of the microwave frequency capabilities of devices formed using substrates according to the invention.
