Abstract The Glenn Research Centre of NASA, USA (www. grc. nasa. gov/WWW/SiC/, silicon
carbide electronics) is in pursuit of realizing bulk manufacturing of silicon carbide (SiC) …

Owing to its attractive optical and electronic properties, silicon carbide is an emerging
platform for integrated photonics. However an integral component of the platform is missing …

Single-crystal silicon carbide (SiC) is one of the most attractive materials for electronics and
optics but extremely difficult to cut owing to its hard and brittle properties. While in previous …

Surface integrity of parts can seriously be damaged by mechanical and thermal loads during
machining leading to crack initiation, constraining of parts or damage. At present, it is very …

Single crystal silicon carbide (SiC) is widely used for optoelectronics applications. Due to the
anisotropic characteristics of single crystal materials, the C face and Si face of single crystal …

We use molecular dynamics simulation to study the mechanisms of plasticity during cutting
of monocrystalline and polycrystalline silicon. Three scenarios are considered:(i) cutting a …

In this experimental study, diamond turning of single crystal 6H-SiC was performed at a
cutting speed of 1m/s on an ultra-precision diamond turning machine (Moore Nanotech 350 …

In this paper, a molecular dynamics simulation has been adopted to arrive at a
phenomenological understanding of the wear mechanism of diamond tools against single …

To study the influence of strain rate and heat effect on the removal behavior of SiC, the
dislocation nucleation/propagation, amorphization and abrasive wear behavior are …

This article aimed to study the nanomechanical properties of silicon carbide under
nanoindentation and nanoscratching by the molecular dynamics (MD). First, the MD models …
