3C-SiC films have been grown on [100] n-doped Si substrates in a horizontal cold wall CVD reactor. Without the use of plasma enhancement, the precursors silane and propane are used to deposit silicon carbide films at T < 1200°C. The structure of the grown films has been investigated via FESEM, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. It has been found that the growth rates are between 200 and 300 nm/h. Additionally, structural analysis give evidence of polycrystalline phases. Reasons for that could be insufficient cracking of the precursors and homogenous nucleation of Si species in the gas phase. |
