SiC has been a suitable material for high temperature and high power applications due to its superior material as well as electrical properties over Si and GaAs and availability of different polytypes in SiC.
"The only evidence we have for a higher hardness than diamond is the fact that we polished the rock section with a diamond paste and that our polymorph and polytypes were not polished by this material," said Ferroir.
