Popis: We have used the heat pulse technique to study phonon transport in 6H–silicon carbide. We have directly detected ballistic acoustic phonons which have propagated across the substrate and have observed the arrival of phonons multiply reflected from the surfaces, suggesting high crystal quality. From the heat pulse data, we deduce the velocities of the longitudinal and transverse acoustic modes. We have used phonon imaging techniques to obtain images of the phonon focusing in 6H–silicon carbide and have compared these with the results of theoretical calculations.
