Phase equilibria in the Si–C–O system at temperatures of 1400–1700°C were modeled to theoretically determine the optimal conditions for implementing our proposed method of carbothermic synthesis of silicon carbide in reactors with an autonomous protective atmosphere. It was found that, depending on the ratio between the initial components and the synthesis temperature, the equilibrium products of the synthesis can be various combinations of silicon carbide, a gas phase, residual amounts of silicon oxide and carbon, andan oxide melt formed at high temperatures.

The feasibility of synthesizing silicon nitride-silicon carbide-titanium carbonitride composites by combustion reactions is demonstrated. With titanium carbonitride taken to be an ideal solid solution, its composition is determined as TiC0.36N0.64. Thermodynamic analysis supports the experimental results.

We report on polytype destabilization during bulk crystal growth of Silicon Carbide by seeded sublimation method. Polytype transitions are experimentally obtained and a thermodynamic analysis using classical 2D nucleation theory is used towards the understanding of the experimental results. Whether it is a thin lamella or an inclusion, it is found that the polytype transitions systematically occur on the (0001) facet. This suggests that the polytype switch takes place through classical 2D nucleation at the facet. We will show that two criteria must be fulfilled for the occurrence of a foreign polytype: i) minimization of nucleation energy and ii) presence of a facet. This is directly depending on the crystal shape (convex or concave) and its evolution with growth time.
