Abstract
A fast and noninvasive mapping tool based on spatially resolved optica l second-harmonic generation is presented for the detection of silicon carbide polytypes in 6H-SiC epilayers. 3C-SiC microcrystallites of di fferent orientations are identified from second-harmonic rotational an isotropy scans. The method reported can be used as an efficient in sit u control of SiC growth processes. (C) 1996 American Institute of Phys ics.
