摘要
The physical vapor transport technique can be employed to fabricate large diameter silicon carbide crystals (up to 50 mm diameter) exhibiting uniform 4H-polytype over the full crystal volume. Crystal growth rate is controlled to first order by temperature conditions and ambient pressure. 4H-polytype uniformity is controlled by polarity of the seed crystal and the growth temperature. 4H-SiC crystals exhibit crystalline defects mainly in the form of dislocations with densities in the 10(4) cm(-2) range and micropipe defects, the latter having densities as low as 10 cm(-2) in best crystals. Electrical conductivity in 4H-SiC bulk crystals ranges from <10(-2) Omega cm, n-type, to insulating (>10(15) Omega cm) at room temperature.
