Abstract
A process is described for creating local oxidation of silicon structu re (LOGOS) structures in silicon carbide using enhanced thermal oxidat ion by argon implantation. Thicker oxides were created in selective re gions by using multiple energy argon implants at a dose of 1 x 10(15) cm(-2) prior to thermal oxidation. Atomic force microscopy was used to analyze the fabricated LOGOS structure.
