Abstract
- We investigate the formations of wurtzite (WZ) SiC nano polytypes in zinc blende (ZB) SiC nanofilms hetero-grown on Si-(100) substrates via low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) by adjusting the Si/C ratio of the introduced precursors. Through SEM, TEM, and Raman characterizations, we find that the nanofilms consist of discrete WZ SiC nano polytypes and ZB SiC polytypes composed of WZ polytypes (WZ + ZB) and disordered ZB SiC polytypes, respectively, according to Si/C ratios of 0.5, 1.5, and 3. We attribute the WZ polytype formation to being due to a kinetic mechanism based on the Si/C surface saturation control. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
