Abstract
6H-SiC substrates grown by Lely method and modified Lely (LM) methods have been studied by X-ray diffractometry and X-ray topography. It has been shown that structural perfection of Lely substrates is significa ntly higher than that of LM substrates: the former have a dislocation density of 10(1)-10(3) dis cm(-2) (as compared with 10(3)-10(5) dis cm (-2) for latter). Our experiments show that with the use of modernized growth equipment it is possible to obtain Lely substrates with high s tructural perfection and an area equal to that of LM substrates (1-1.5 '' diameter).
