2-31.N type
A semiconductor has electrical conductivity between that of a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors differ from metals in their characteristic property of decreasing electrical resistivity with increasing temperature.Semiconductors can also display properties of passing current more easily in one direction than the other, [...]

5-4-3 Growth of Hexagonal Polytype SiC Wafers
In the late 1970s, Tairov and Tzvetkov established the basic principles of a modified seeded sublimation growth process for growth of 6H-SiC. This process, also referred to as the modified Lely process,was a breakthrough for SiC in that [...]
