Abstract
Thick (up to 25 mu m) SiC layers deposited on silicon have been probed by micro-Raman spectroscopy and infrared reflectivity measurement. Th e Raman spectra collected on the edge of the sample show a large strai n relaxation when moving from the interface region to the free surface of the sample. The IR reflectivity measurements evidence a finite rou ghness of the Si/SiC interface and about 10% dispersion in the layer t hickness homogeneity. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
