Control of a high temperature DLTS setup

Abstract: This thesis deals with a DLTS-setup and how this can be controlled. The controlling program is constructed in LABVIEW, where a previous built program measuring transients at varying pulses been handled and tried to be implemented for this setup. Parts of the program was implemented successfully, other part needs more work. The heater in the setup has further been connected directly to the sample. This one has been tested to see that the setup can handle the heat and that the difference between the temperature at the sample and the setup did not differ too much. The result showed that the difference was not so big. Finally, DLTS tests was performed at samples of silicon carbide as well as on diamond, where transients could be measured up to 723 °C on the silicon carbide sample, while the tests of diamond only gave noise.
