5-4-4-2 SiC Epitaxial Growth Polytype Control
5-4-4-2 SiC Epitaxial Growth Polytype Control Homoepitaxial growth, whereby the polytype of the SiC epilayer matches the polytype of the SiC substrate, is accomplished by “step-controlled” epitaxy . Step-controlled epitaxy is based upon growing epilayers on an SiC wafer polished at an angle (called the [...]

5-4-5 SiC Crystal Dislocation Defects
5-4-5 SiC Crystal Dislocation Defects Table 5.2 summarizes the major known dislocation defects found in present-day commercial 4H- and 6H-SiC wafers and epilayers . Since the active regions of devices reside in epilayers, the epilayer defect content is clearly of primary importance to SiC device [...]
