Problems solved by technology

The four-probe method is often used to test the resistivity of semiconductor materials. According to the conductivity formula, the result of the four-probe method is the product of the carrier concentration and mobility in the semiconductor material. Since the mobility is affected by scattering, the Doping concentration and temperature change, while the carrier concentration is only the same as the actual doping concentration in the semiconductor under strong ionization, so this method cannot accurately reflect the actual doping concentration of the semiconductor material

Embodiment 1

[0030] This embodiment provides a method for calculating the doping concentration of N-type highly doped silicon carbide, such as figure 1 As shown, the steps of the method include:

[0031] S1. Obtain the conduction band equivalent density of states N by cyclotron resonance experiment C ,Such as figure 2 As shown, the specific experimental steps of the cyclotron resonance test are: add a constant magnetic field B to the silicon carbide sample, and then apply an alternating electromagnetic field, and let the electric component E be perpendicular to the constant magnetic field B. Due to the effect of the Lorentz force, the electrons in the semiconductor do spiral motion around the magnetic field on the one hand, and are also affected by the alternating electromagnetic field on the other hand.

[0039] This embodiment provides a method for calculating the doping concentration of P-type highly doped gallium nitride, including:

[0040] S1. Using the cyclotron resonance experiment to measure the equivalent density of states in the valence band, the cyclotron resonance experiment specifically adds a constant magnetic field B to the gallium nitride sample, and then applies an alternating electromagnetic field, and makes the electric component E perpendicular to the constant magnetic field B. Then the holes in the semiconductor do spiral motion around the magnetic field on the one hand, and are also affected by the alternating electromagnetic field on the other hand. When the frequency ω of the electromagnetic field and the cyclotron frequency of the holes At the same time, the holes will be continuously accelerated by the alternating electromagnetic field, thereby gaining energy and causing resonance absorption. By measuring the electromagnetic field frequency ω and the ...
