Papers by Keyword: Low-Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition

Abstract: The heteroepitaxial growth of 3C-SiC on Si (001) and Si (111) substrates deeply patterned at a micron scale by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition is shown to lead to space-filling isolated structures resulting from a mechanism of self-limitation of lateral expansion. Stacking fault densities and wafer bowing may be drastically reduced for optimized pattern geometries.
