Abstract

A threading dislocation (TD) in 4H-SiC, which was currently interpreted as a perfect threading edge dislocation (TED) by synchrotron monochromatic-beam X-ray topography (SMBXT) and molten KOH etching with Na2O2 additive, was performed comparative characterization using weak-beam dark-field (WBDF) and large-angle convergent-beam electron diffraction (LACBED) methods. The TD was suggested to be dissociated into a dislocation pair which can be observed in the WBDF image of g=-12-10. The TD, which was identified as b//[-12-10] by SMBXT observation, was unambiguously determined as b=1/3[-12-10] by LACBED analysis. In the case of perfect TED, it was found that the direction of Burgers vector derived from SMBXT observation corresponds to LACBED analysis.
