The total energy differences between various SiC polytypes (3C, 6H, 4H, 2H, 15R and 9R) were calculated using the full-potential linear muffin-tin orbital method using the Perdew-Wang-(91) generalized gradient approximation to the exchange-correlation functional in the density functional method. Numerical convergence versus k-point sampling and basis set completeness are demonstrated to be better than 1 meV/atom. The parameters of several generalized anisotropic next-nearest-neighbor Ising models are extracted and their significance and consequences for epitaxial growth are discussed.

This communication presents a comparative study on the charge transport (in transient and steady state) in bulk n-type doped SiC-polytypes: 3C-SiC, 4H-SiC and 6H-SiC. The time evolution of the basic macrovariables: the electron drift velocity and the non-equilibrium temperature are obtained theoretically by using a Non-Equilibrium Quantum Kinetic Theory, derived from the method of Nonequilibrium Statistical Operator (NSO). The dependence on the intensity and orientation of the applied electric field of this macrovariables and mobility are derived and analyzed. From the results obtained in this paper, the most attractive of these semiconductors for applications requiring greater electronic mobility is the polytype 4H-SiC with the electric field applied perpendicular to the c-axis.

We have investigated the atomic structure of superconducting Ca-intercalated bilayer graphene on a SiC(0001) substrate using total-reflection high-energy positron diffraction. By comparing the experimental rocking-curves with ones calculated for vari ous structural models using a full-dynamical theory, we have found that Ca atoms are intercalated in the graphene-buffer interlayer, rather than between the two graphene layers. From transport measurements, the superconducting transition was observed to be at Tc_onset = 4K for this structure. This study is the first to clearly identify the relation between the atomic arrangement and superconductivity in Ca-intercalated bilayer graphene.
We present a calculation of the change of free energy of a solid surface upon bending of the solid. It is based on extracting the surface stress through a molecular dynamics simulation of a bent slab by using a generalized stress theorem formula, and subsequent integration of the stress with respect to strain as a function of bending curvature. The method is exemplified by obtaining and comparing free energy changes with curvature of various reconstructed Au(001) surfaces.
Recent experiments on the silicon terminated $3times 2$ SiC(100) surface indicated an unexpected metallic character upon hydrogen adsorption. This effect was attributed to the bonding of hydrogen to a row of Si atoms and to the stabilization of a nei ghboring dangling bond row. Here, on the basis of Density-Functional calculations, we show that multiple-layer adsorption of H at the reconstructed surface is compatible with a different geometry: besides saturating the topmost Si dangling bonds, H atoms are adsorbed at rather unusual sites, textit{i.e.} stable bridge positions above third-layer Si dimers. The results thus suggest an alternative interpretation for the electronic structure of the metallic surface

Elucidating the interaction between magnetic moments and itinerant carriers is an important step to spintronic applications. Here, we investigate magnetic and transport properties in d0 ferromagnetic SiC single crystals prepared by postimplantation p ulsed laser annealing. Magnetic moments are contributed by the p states of carbon atoms, but their magnetic circular dichroism is different from that in semi-insulating SiC samples. The anomalous Hall effect and negative magnetoresistance indicate the influence of d0 spin order on free carriers. The ferromagnetism is relatively weak in N-implanted SiC compared with that in Al-implanted SiC after annealing. The results suggest that d0 magnetic moments and itinerant carriers can interact with each other, which will facilitate the development of SiC spintronic devices with d0 ferromagnetism.
