Abstract

The elastic properties of nanoscale silicon carbide film grown on a silicon substrate by the method of atomic substitution were studied. The Young modulus of nanoscale silicon carbide was for the first time measured by nanoindentation method. The structural characteristics of silicon carbide film on silicon were studied by the optical profilometry and spectral ellipsometry; the roughness and thickness of film were m-easured.
