2-25.FWHM
Full width at half maximum (FWHM) is an expression of the extent of a function, given by the difference between the two extreme values of the independent variable at which the dependent variable is equal to half of its maximum value.

2-18.Grain boundaries
2-18.Grain boundaries They are interfaces where crystals of different orientations meet. A grain boundary is a single-phase interface, with crystals on each side of the boundary being identical except in orientation. The term “crystallite boundary” is sometimes, though rarely, used. Grain boundary areas contain those [...]

5-3-2 High-Power Device Operation
5-3-2 High-Power Device Operation The high breakdown field and high thermal conductivity of SiC coupled with high operational junction temperatures theoretically permit extremely high-power densities and efficiencies to be realized in SiC devices. The high breakdown field of SiC relative to silicon enables the blocking voltage region [...]

5-2-1 SiC Material Properties
SILICON CARBIDE (SiC) materials are currently metamorphosing from research and development into a market driven manufacturing product. SiC substrates are currently used as the base for a large fraction of the world production of green, blue, and ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Emerging markets for [...]

2-22.Surface Roughness
2-22.Surface Roughness Often shortened to roughness, is a measure of the texture of a surface. It is quantified by the vertical deviations of a real surface from its ideal form. If these deviations are large, the surface is rough; if they are small the surface [...]

5-5-4 Patterned Etching of SiC for Device Fabrication
5-5-4 Patterned Etching of SiC for Device Fabrication At room temperature, there are no known conventional wet chemicals that etch single-crystal SiC. Most patterned etching of SiC for electronic devices and circuits is accomplished using dry etching techniques. The reader should consult References 122–124 which contain summaries [...]
