The liquid phase method is closer to the thermodynamic equilibrium conditions and is able to grow SiC crystals with better quality.

Silicon Carbide (SiC) has emerged as a key material in the field of semiconductor technology, offering exceptional properties that make it highly desirable for various electronic and optoelectronic applications. The production of high-quality SiC single crystals is crucial for advancing the capabilities of devices such as power electronics, LEDs, and high-frequency devices. In this article, we delve into the significance of porous graphite in the Physical Vapor Transport (PVT) method for 4H-SiC single crystal growth.

Graphitising is the process of transforming non-graphitic charcoal into graphitic charcoal with graphite three-dimensional regular ordered structure by high-temperature heat treatment, making full use of electrical resistance heat to heat the charcoal material to 2300~3000 ℃, and transforming the charcoal with amorphous chaotic layer structure into ordered graphite crystalline structure.

The degree of graphitization is an essential measure used to assess how close carbon atoms are to forming a tightly-packed hexagonal graphite crystal structure.

Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic materials possess a range of excellent properties, including high-temperature strength, strong oxidation resistance, superior wear resistance, thermal stability, low thermal expansion coefficient, high thermal conductivity, high hardness, thermal shock resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance. These characteristics make SiC ceramics increasingly applicable in various fields such as automotive, mechanical and chemical industries, environmental protection, space technology, information electronics, and energy. SiC ceramics have become an irreplaceable structural ceramic material in many industrial sectors due to their outstanding performance.
