The mechanism of the reduction in the electron concentration in lightly Nitrogen (N) doped n-type 4H Silicon Carbide (SiC) epilayers by 200 keV electron irradiation is investigated. The densities and energy levels of donors and the compensating density are determined by applying a graphical peak analysis method to the temperature dependence of the electron concentration in the epilayer before and after irradiations. As a result, we found that the density of N donors at hexagonal C-sublattice sites was reduced much more than the density of N donors at cubic C-sublattice sites.
