SINGLE CRYSTAL SIC AND A METHOD OF PRODUCING THE SAME

A .beta.-SiC polycrystal plate (2) having a thickness of not less than 10 .mu.m is formed on the surface of an .alpha.-SiC single crystal substrate (1) by PVD or thermal CVD to prepare a composite (M), which is heat-treated in the temperature range of from 650 to 2400 .degree.C to transform the poly...

Zusammenfassung:A .beta.-SiC polycrystal plate (2) having a thickness of not less than 10 .mu.m is formed on the surface of an .alpha.-SiC single crystal substrate (1) by PVD or thermal CVD to prepare a composite (M), which is heat-treated in the temperature range of from 650 to 2400 .degree.C to transform the polycrystal of the .beta.-SiC polycrystal plate (2) into a single crysta l, permitting a single crystal aligned in the same orientation as the crystal axis of the .alpha.-SiC single crystal substrate (1) to be grown. This proce ss serves to easily and efficiently prepare a high-quality single crystal of SiC substantially free from a micropipe defect and defects caused by the influence of the micropipe defect.
