Thermal Oxidation Mechanism of Silicon Carbide

Thermal Processing of Injection-Molded Silicon Carbide

Silicon carbide is the most important and versatile non-oxide ceramic. Powder injection molding (PIM) is a method of high-speed fabrication of complex near-net shapes of SiC and other powders. Green micro-machining (GMM) is used to extend the shaping capability of green ceramics and powder metallurgy to smaller feature sizes. Debinding—removal of organic additives—is the rate-limiting step in P...

Epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide: Introduction to structured graphene

We present an introduction to the rapidly growing field of epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide, tracing its development from the original proof-of-concept experiments a decade ago to its present, highly evolved state. The potential of epitaxial graphene as a new electronic material is now being recognized. Whether the ultimate promise of graphene-based electronics will ever be realized remain...
