✦ Synopsis
Various aspects of the elaboration of (1 1 1) oriented 3C-SiC films on silicon are discussed within a comparative study of different layer characteristics for (1 1 1) and (1 0 0) orientations. The dissimilarities between both orientations are pointed out. This includes the growth mode during the nucleation, the efficacy of defect healing during the growth, the dopant incorporation and the warping of the epiwafer. The results of 3C-SiC surface preparation by chemical mechanical polishing are also demonstrated. All the characteristics of (1 1 1) oriented layers are discussed from the point of view of the application of 3C-SiC/Si epiwafers as templates for nitride growth. The characteristics of AlGaN/GaN based high electron mobility transistor elaborated on 3C-SiC/Si template are presented to validate the template's concept.

The potential for enhancement of Si-based devices by growth of SiC films on large-diameter Si wafers is hampered by the very high temperatures (close to the Si melting temperature) that are needed for growth and doping by the existing techniques. Here, we present a unique doping method for growth of
Non-polar relaxed cubic GaN was grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on nano-patterned 3C-SiC/Si (0 0 1) substrates with negligible hexagonal content and less defect density than in planar cubic GaN layers. Nano-patterning of 3C-SiC/Si (0 0 1) is achieved by self-ordered colloidal masks for the fir
In this study we report the epitaxial growth of BaTiO 3 films on Si(0 0 1) substrate buffered by 5 nm-thick SrTiO 3 layer using both MBE and PLD techniques. The BaTiO 3 films demonstrate single crystalline, (0 0 1)oriented texture and atomically flat surface on SrTiO 3 /Si template. The electrical c
