Ultra-pure n-type (8$$times$$10$$^{13}$$ cm$$^{-3}$$), 99 $$mu$$m thick epitaxial layers of hexagonal (4H) silicon carbide (SiC) were irradiated with electrons either at 170 keV with a fluence of 5$$times$$10$$^{16}$$ cm$$^{-2}$$ or at 1 MeV with a fluence of 1$$times$$10$$^{15}$$ cm$$^{-2}$$ in various geometries. Low temperature photoluminescence (LTPL) spectra and microwave photoconductance ($$mu$$PCD) lifetime measurements were carried out for all samples before and after annealing in argon in free standing mode or on a POCO carbon (Poco Graphite, Inc.) platform, every 50 $$^{circ}$$C from 1100 $$^{circ}$$C to 1500 $$^{circ}$$C. However, no improvement in carrier lifetime was observed although previous studies reported that carbon diffused into SiC during high temperature treatment improves carrier lifetime. The result obtained in this study suggests that simple carbon diffusion model cannot be applied and more study is required to understand the injection of carbon interstitials into the SiC lattice.
