Abstract

Cubic SiC thin films have been grown by supersonic jet epitaxy (SJE) using the single molecular precursor t-butyldimethylsilane (TBDMS), (CH3)3C-SiH(CH3)2. Single crystal cubic SiC thin films were grown on both carburized and uncarburized Si(100) at a temperature of 830°C. Highly oriented cubic SiC(111) thin films were obtained on carburized and uncarburized Si(111) substrates at 830°C. This growth temperature is much lower than conventional CVD growth temperatures. It is believed that this is the first report of SiC growth using t-butyldimethylsilane.
