Abstract

We have grown thin films of SiC by pulsed laser deposition on silicon (100) and vicinal and non-vicinal 6H SiC (0001) substrates using a quadrupled YAG laser and a high purity dense polycrystalline SiC target. Epitaxy on all three substrate types was confirmed by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction. Composition of the films was measured by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry and Scanning Auger Microprobe.
