Growth of a Thick 2H-SiC Layer in Si-Li Solution under a Continuous CH4 Flow

Article Preview

Abstract:

The growth of thick 2H-SiC layers in Si-Li solution under a continuous CH4 flow at atmospheric pressure was investigated. The thickness of the 2H-SiC layer increased linearly with the growth period, reaching as thick as 270-μm with a growth period of 7 hr. The Li concentration in the layers was as low as 1.0 × 1018 atoms/cm3, which was less than one-hundredth that observed in a previous study.
