Popis: Carrier lifetime in low carrier concentration 4H-SiC epitaxial layers grown on the C-face was enhanced by using carbon implantation and post annealing. The measured carrier lifetime increased with the thickness of the epitaxial layer and was 11.4 µs for the 150 µm thick epitaxial layer. The internal carrier lifetime was estimated as 21 µs from the dependence of the measured carrier lifetime on the epitaxial layer thickness. This value is almost comparable to the reported values of the internal carrier lifetime for the layers grown on the Si-face.
