Abstract
Recently the microplasticity of SiC single crystals has been investigated by several groups 1 to 6 in a large temperature range (up to 1850°C) and by using different deformation modes (uniaxial compressive tests, creep tests, hardness indentations). Experiments were conducted on the hexagonal 6H SiC polytype.
