524 SILICON CARBIDE Vol. 22 SILICON CARBIDE 1. Introduction Silicon carbide [409-21-2] (SiC) is a technologically important material that is one of the small number of unusual materials that were first created synthetically and then subsequently discovered in nature. Silicon carbide was first observed in its natural form in 1905 by the Nobel-prize-winning chemist Henri Moissan‚ who discovered it in the meteor that created the Diablo Canyon in Arizona. The transparent mineral‚ now known as

Applications of Silicon Silicon is one of man’s most useful elements. In the form of sand and clay it is used to make concrete and brick; it is a useful refractory material for high-temperature work‚ and in the form of silicates it is used in making enamels‚ pottery‚ etc. Silica‚ as sand‚ is a principal ingredient of glass‚ one of the most inexpensive of materials with excellent mechanical‚ optical‚ thermal and electrical properties. Hyperpure silicon can be doped with boron‚ gallium‚ phosphorus

Silicon dioxide (SiO2) is one of the most common oxides on the surface of earth. Like most oxides‚ it adopts a polymeric structure. Оксидите се хемиски соединенија што содржат најмалку еден атом на кислород и еден атом од друг хемиски елемент во својата формула. An oxide /ˈɒksaɪd/ is a chemical compound that contains at least one oxygenatom and one other element[1] in its chemical formula. Metal oxides typically contain an anion of oxygen in the oxidation state of −2. Most of the Earth’s crustconsists
