Review of Sublimation Growth of SiC Bulk Crystals

The review on bulk growth of SiC includes a basic overview on the widely used physical vapor transport method for processing of 4H-SiC boules as well as the discussion of three current research topics: (a) Sublimation bulk growth of large area, freestanding cubic SiC, (b) in-situ Visualization of the PVT Process using 2D and 3D X-ray based imaging and (c) prediction of dislocation formation and motion in SiC using a continuum model of dislocation dynamics (CDD).
