Semi-insulating (SI) silicon carbide is important for applications in high-power, high-frequency electronics, such as SiC MESFETs and GaN FETs. In this work, we discuss the use of low-temperature electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), room- and low-temperature FTIR and photoluminescence as potential... (Read more)
