Notes:
The complete sets of elastic constants of 4H and 6H silicon carbide single crystals were determined by Brillouin scattering. The elastic constants of 6H SiC are C11=501±4, C33=553±4, C44=163±4, C12=111±5, and C13=52±9 GPa; the corresponding ones of 4H SiC are the same within experimental uncertainties. The compressibility, 4.5×10−3 GPa, is about 3–5 times smaller than those reported for polycrystalline SiC materials. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
