Abstract

In the field of power electronics, the ongoing development of wide-bandgap compound semiconductors is limited by material defects, which compromise device performance and reliability. New metrological tools are required with high sensitivity to local material properties, such as noninvasive nano-FTIR hyperspectral imaging to map properties such as: crystal structure, carrier density, or strain on the nanoscale. However, full spatio-spectral imaging is constrained by long measurement times. Here we discuss a compression method that allows us to reduce the measurement time by up to 90%.
