sic crystal defects
Most of the defects which were observed in SiC were also observed in other crystalline materials. Like the dislocations, stacking faults (SFs), low angle boundaries (LABs) and twins. Some others appear in materials having the Zing- Blend or the Wurtzite structure, like the IDBs. Micropipes and inclusions from other phases mainly appear in SiC.
Historical Lack of SiC Wafers
Reproducible wafers of reasonable consistency, size, quality, and availability are a prerequisite forcommercial mass production of semiconductor electronics. Many semiconductor materials can be meltedand reproducibly recrystallized into large single crystals with the aid of a seed crystal, such as in theCzochralski method employed in the manufacture of almost all silicon wafers, enabling reasonably largewafers to be mass produced. However, because SiC sublimes instead of melting at reasonably attainablepressures, SiC cannot be grown by conventional melt-growth techniques. Prior to 1980, experimentalSiC electronic devices were confined to small (typically ~1 ), irregularly shaped SiC crystal plateletsgrown as a byproduct of the Acheson process for manufacturing industrial abrasives (e.g., sandpaper) or by the Lely process . In the Lely process, SiC sublimed from polycrystalline SiC powder attemperatures near 2500°C are randomly condensed on the walls of a cavity forming small, hexagonallyshaped platelets. While these small, nonreproducible crystals permitted some basic SiC electronicsresearch, they were clearly not suitable for semiconductor mass production. As such, silicon became thedominant semiconductor fueling the solid-state technology revolution, while interest in SiC-based microelectronicswas limited.
