(a) Cross-sectional TEM micrograph of the Si/Ta/Ti/4H–SiC contact (3R600-24). The sample is annealed at 600 °C for 2 min in Ar atmosphere and then aged at 600 °C for 24 h in air, (b) a linear scanning analysis of the 3R600-24 to display the composition distribution of a selected observation distance.
