ABSTRACT:
A device for epitaxially growing objects of SiC by Chemical Vapor Deposition on a substrate comprises a substantially cylindrical susceptor having continuous circumferential walls with a substantially uniform thickness surrounding a chamber receiving the substrate, the walls being surrounded by thermal insulation. The circumferential susceptor walls and thereby the substrate and a gas mixture fed to the substrate for the growth are heated to a temperature level in the range of 2000.degree.-2500.degree. C. at which sublimation of the grown material starts to considerably increase. The gas mixture is fed into the susceptor with a composition and at a rate that ensures a positive growth.
