Method of preparing a silicon carbide crystal by deposition onto at least a pair of conductive heating elements

Abstract

A method of preparing a high-purity silicon carbide (SiC) crystal, and more specifically, to a method of preparing high-purity SiC having an extremely low impurity content in an excellent yield and in large quantities. The method including preparing a reactor containing a reaction chamber; heating the conductive heating element in the reaction chamber; mixing a silicon precursor, a carbon precursor, and a carrier gas; injecting the mixed gas into the reaction chamber, depositing SiC on the conductive heating element and harvesting the deposited SiC crystals.
