An approach of direct bonding of SiC wafers of differing polytypes has been implemented in order to create a template for cubic 3C-SiC homoepitaxy. Heteroepitaxial 3C-SiC layers grown by chemical vapor deposition were transferred onto a hexagonal 6H-SiC wafer. The results of structural characterization showed that the quality of 3C-SiC sublimation epitaxy on the templates is comparable to the level of epitaxy of cubic silicon carbide by chemical vapor deposition method. It was confirmed that the 3С-SiC layer transferred onto the 6H-SiC substrate plays the role of a crystalline "seed" that determines cubic polytype of the overgrown SiC layer.
The simulation results of the temperature distribution in the growth area of graphene layers obtained by the method of thermal decomposition of the silicon carbide surface substrates in setup with induction heating are presented. The heating parametrs of the setup elements are calculated using the commercial package COMSOL Multiphysics taking into account the electrical, thermal and magnetic properties of the materials from which the growth plant elements are made. A numerical estimate of the heating inhomogeneity of silicon carbide plates over its area during the growth of graphene layers at a given temperature is given. It is shown that the lateral temperature distribution over the area of the plate has radial symmetry with decreasing values towards the center.
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.
