Download or read book Electron Optical Studies of Heteroepitaxial Growth of Beta Silicon Carbide Layers Through Molten Metal Intermediates written by Joseph J. Comer and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beta silicon carbide has the potential of becoming an important semiconductor device material for hazardous military environments such as high temperature and radiation. This report is concerned with a study of the growth of thin single crystal films of beta silicon carbide through molten metal intermediates. Thin films of nickel, cobalt, chromium and iron were deposited by vacuum deposition on to the (0001) faces of single crystals of alpha silicon carbide. Then heteroepitaxial layers of beta silicon carbide were deposited through the molten metal films by the hydrogen reduction of methyltrichlorosilane. The deposited films were studied by electron microscopy, electron diffraction and electron beam microprobe analysis to determine the growth mechanism and to arrive at optimum conditions for heteroepitaxial growth. From the results obtained it was concluded that nickel and cobalt were equally effective in promoting epitaxial growth. Films of nickel only 20A in thickness were as effective as those up to 300A. Results with chromium and iron were disappointing for different reasons. Chromium did not etch the substrate surface uniformly because of poor wetting. With iron, whisker growth of beta silicon carbide occurred at the surface. Although in many respects the growth of mechanism resembled that of the vapor-liquid-solid method, certain differences were observed which make the actual growth mechanism using nickel and cobalt films still uncertain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive introduction and up-to-date reference to SiC power semiconductor devices covering topics from material properties to applications Based on a number of breakthroughs in SiC material science and fabrication technology in the 1980s and 1990s, the first SiC Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) were released as commercial products in 2001. The SiC SBD market has grown significantly since that time, and SBDs are now used in a variety of power systems, particularly switch-mode power supplies and motor controls. SiC power MOSFETs entered commercial production in 2011, providing rugged, high-efficiency switches for high-frequency power systems. In this wide-ranging book, the authors draw on their considerable experience to present both an introduction to SiC materials, devices, and applications and an in-depth reference for scientists and engineers working in this fast-moving field. Fundamentals of Silicon Carbide Technology covers basic properties of SiC materials, processing technology, theory and analysis of practical devices, and an overview of the most important systems applications. Specifically included are: A complete discussion of SiC material properties, bulk crystal growth, epitaxial growth, device fabrication technology, and characterization techniques. Device physics and operating equations for Schottky diodes, pin diodes, JBS/MPS diodes, JFETs, MOSFETs, BJTs, IGBTs, and thyristors. A survey of power electronics applications, including switch-mode power supplies, motor drives, power converters for electric vehicles, and converters for renewable energy sources. Coverage of special applications, including microwave devices, high-temperature electronics, and rugged sensors. Fully illustrated throughout, the text is written by recognized experts with over 45 years of combined experience in SiC research and development. This book is intended for graduate students and researchers in crystal growth, material science, and semiconductor device technology. The book is also useful for design engineers, application engineers, and product managers in areas such as power supplies, converter and inverter design, electric vehicle technology, high-temperature electronics, sensors, and smart grid technology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the production of the first commercially available blue LED in the late 1980s, silicon carbide technology has grown into a billion-dollar industry world-wide in the area of solid-state lighting and power electronics. With this in mind we organized this book to bring to the attention of those well versed in SiC technology some new developments in the field with a particular emphasis on particularly promising technologies such as SiC-based solar cells and optoelectronics. We have balanced this with the more traditional subjects such as power electronics and some new developments in the improvement of the MOS system for SiC MOSFETS. Given the importance of advanced microsystems and sensors based on SiC, we also included a review on 3C-SiC for both microsystem and electronic applications.
