摘要：
We report on UV responsivity of 4H-SiC photodiodes irradiated by 1 MeV neutrons. Current-voltage characteristics, photoresponse spectra, and responsivity were obtained with light wavelength from 200 to 450 nm. Photoresponse results slightly affected by irradiation up to the threshold fluence Phi(critical)=8x10(14) cm(-2). At fluences >=Phi(critical) the rejection rate is in the order of 10(3) in the range of 200-320 nm while it is less than 10(2) at about 320 nm. The abrupt increase in midgap traps induced by irradiation at Phi(critical), observed by photoinduced current transient spectroscopy, proves carrier generation/trapping to be the controlling mechanism for the responsivity.
