Abstract:3C-SiC epilayers grown on Si-face nominally on-axis 4H-SiC substrate are characterized with X-ray diffraction techniques. The aim was to investigate if these 3C-SiC epilayers were grown by single domain growth. The results show that all samples start by having several nucleation centers all over the substrate surface and the growth continues with two domain formations. As the growth proceeds one domain overtakes the growth and single domain crystal growth occurs. This single domain was further investigated and… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
