Abstract
The first observation of amplification of the photogeneration current in Au/SiO2/n-6H-SiC structures with a tunnel-thin insulator is reporte d. This effect can be used to increase the efficiency of existing UV-r ange 6H-SiC-based photodiodes. It also shows that bipolar SiC transist ors with a MOS tunnel emitter can be produced.
