Abstract
4H-SiC specimens were implanted with C-ions and then irradiated with Pb-ions, and subsequently annealed at three different temperatures. The samples were investigated by using Fourier transformation infrared spectrum(FTIR) and Rutherford backward scattering(RBS). The obtained FTIR spectra showed that there is a buried amorphous layer close to the ion-incident surface and there are several interference fringes in the range from 960 to 1 450 cm ^-1. The intensity of fringes decreases with the increase of annealing temperature. The obtained RBS spectra showed that the yield of Si atoms in 4H-SiC crystal decreases in a well-defined depth region after annealing at 1 373 K.
