The endotaxia is the process of growth of one crystal structure inside the volume of another. In this case we are talking about the formation of the Silicon Carbide film in the Silicon substrate. The Silicon substrate is placed in the gas chamber. The sample is exposed to the stream of methane gas CH4 at temperature of 1360 - 1380 ◦C and at normal pressure. Moreover, gas contains both the stable Carbon isotope C12 and the radioactive Carbon isotope C14, and hydrogen H2 in the gas acts as a carrier of Carbon.
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.
