  • Patent number: 10686041
    Abstract: A 3C—SiC buffer layer on Si(001) comprising a porous buffer layer of 3C—SiC on a Si(001) substrate, wherein the porous buffer layer is produced through a solid state reaction, and wherein an amorphous carbon layer on the Si(001) substrate is deposited by magnetron sputtering of a C target at room temperature at a rate of 0.8 nm/min.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 6, 2017
    Date of Patent: June 16, 2020
    Assignee: The Government of the United States of America, as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Connie H. Li, Glenn G. Jernigan, Berend T. Jonker, Ramasis Goswami, Carl S. Hellberg

  • Patent number: 9673047
    Abstract: A method of making a SiC buffer layer on a Si substrate comprising depositing an amorphous carbon layer on a Si(001) substrate, controlling the thickness of the amorphous carbon layer by controlling the time of the step of depositing the amorphous carbon layer, and forming a deposited film. A 3C—SiC buffer layer on Si(001) comprising a porous buffer layer of 3C—SiC on a Si substrate wherein the porous buffer layer is produced through a solid state reaction.
