Abstract
A novel model which is capable of describing with significant accuracy the temporal-spatial distributions of the minority carriers in 4H-SiC p-i-n diodes is presented. The analytical behaviour of the current, voltage and carrier distributions is compared with numerical simulations and with experimental results.
