ABSTRACTA method of analysis of disordering in α- and β-SiC polycrystals by numerical modeling, and a simulation of X-ray diffraction profiles are presented. The diffraction patterns of nonperiodic structures were simulated for models of 2000 layer fragments of the structure. Computer generation of the models was based on the Poisson function describing the size distribution of the domains of basic polytypes and faults. The models were quantified by a set of input probability parameters describing relative frequencies of the occurrence of the domains of polytypes and faults. Implementation of a correlation parameter that characterizes coherence of sequential domains of a given polytype assures a good reproducibility of the simulated diffraction profiles obtained for the same set of the model parameters. Based on this method, a quantitative analysis of disordering in polycrystals of SiC annealed in the temperature range 1100–2200 °C was performed.
