Abstract
In this work we present calculations of the Raman linewidth in 3C-SiC with different isotopic compositions which present non-trivial trends. Our results are discussed for both longitudinal and transverse modes. The temperature dependence of the linewidth of natural SiC is compute d and compared with available experimental data.
