Abstract
Silicon carbide crystallizes into several structural modifications whose c-periodicities vary from 1 nm to more than 100 nm. Its high period structures are found to consist of intergrowth of smaller period structures at the unit cell level. The X-ray diffraction studies show that SiC crystals often possess one-dimensional disorder which is characterized by continuous streaks in X-ray diffraction patterns along ho.1 reciprocal lattice rows. However, it is shown that these streaks can also arise as a result of extremely high c-periodicities of the crystals as their ho.1 spots cannot be resolved easily. This contribution reports the observation of only few representative cases of so-called one-dimensional disordered crystals as observed in their X-ray and electron diffractions with lattice imaging.
