Aims & Scope

This special edition addresses the scientific and technological foundations underlying the production of silicon carbide crystals and device-quality epitaxial films. Bulk crystal growth techniques, particularly physical vapour transport, are discussed with emphasis on technological control, defect reduction, polytype stability, and process optimisation, all of which affect final device performance and reliability. The edition will serve as a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and students working in semiconductor materials and technologies.
