Highly Conductive p‐Type Zinc blende SiC Thin Films Fabricated on Silicon Substrates by Magnetron Sputtering

“…S ILICON carbide (SiC) ceramics have high thermal conductivity, good mechanical strength, and good oxidation resistance that are favorable for structural applications such as fusion reactors, heat exchangers, gas turbines, diesel particulate filters, and hot gas filters. [1][2][3][4] Since SiC ceramics also have a high electrical breakdown field strength and high saturation drift velocity, SiC ceramics are likely to be advantageous for high-temperature, high power, and highfrequency device applications compared to existing Si-based ceramics. [5][6][7] SiC compounds exist in a number of close-packed stacking arrangements (polytypes).…”

Influence of Y2O3 addition on electrical properties of β-SiC ceramics sintered in nitrogen atmosphere

“…[11][12][13][14][15] The difficulty in preparing highly conducting SiC ceramics has limited the wider applications of SiC. One way to overcome this problem is to add electro conducting phases, such as MoSi 2 16 and NbC-Ti, 17 to highly resistive SiC ceramics in large quantities to improve electrical * Corresponding author.

Nb(Si,C,N) composite materials densified by spark plasma sintering

“…8d). Compared to composite 7Nb3P-S4 the size of Nb 2 N has decreased to 1.8 m. As it is reported in the literature NbC can inhibit grain growth during pressure assisted sintering [34,35]. The diameter of Nb 2 CN and NbC grains was determined to an average value of 0.7 m and 0.8 m, respectively.…”
