Abstract

Synchrotron white beam X-ray topography has been used to characterize defect structures in 6H-SiC wafers grown on (0001) seeds. Two major types of defects are observed: super screw dislocations approximately perpendicular to the basal plane and dislocation networks lying in the basal plane. The super screw dislocations, which have open cores, are growth dislocations. These dislocations act as sources and/or sinks for the glide dislocation networks. Detailed analysis and discussion of dislocation generation phenomena and Burgers vectors will be presented.
