Project organisation
WP1 - Material growth and related aspects
To grow high quality 3C-SiC material on 6H or 4H-SiC substrates
WP2 - Material characterization
To characterize the physical and electrical properties of the grown 3C-SiC, to develop novel non-destructive evaluation techniques
WP3 - New devices and demonstrators
To design an develop new devices based on the 3C-SiC/ α -SiC heterostructures and bulk 3C-SiC
