- 1. Nature 430, 1009 (2004) , “Ultrahigh-quality silicon carbide single crystals”, Daisuke Nakamura, Itaru Gunjishima, Satoshi Yamaguchi, Tadashi Ito, Atsuto Okamoto, Hiroyuki Kondo, Shoichi Onda, Kazumasa TakatoriSilicon carbide (SiC) has a range of useful physical, mechanical and electronic properties that make it a promising material for next-generation electronic devices1,2. Careful consideration of the thermal conditions3-6 in which SiC {0001} is grown has resulted in improvements in crystal diameter and quality: the quantity of macroscopic defects such as hollow core dislocations (micropipes)7-9, inclusions, small-angle boundaries and longrange lattice warp has been reduced10,11. But some macroscopic defects (about 1–10 cm-2) and a large density of elementary dislocations (,104 cm-2), such as edge, basal plane and screw dislocations, remain within the crystal, and have so far prevented the realization of high-efficiency, reliable electronic devices in SiC (refs 12–16). Here we report a method, inspired by the dislocation structure of SiC grown perpendicular to the c-axis (a-face growth)17, to reduce the number of dislocations in SiC single crystals by two to three orders of magnitude, rendering them virtually dislocation-free. These substrates will promote the development of high-power SiC devices and reduce energy losses of the resulting electrical systems. (Read more)
