Ingabonwa ukuba iqondo lokushisa elikufutshane nodonga lwe-crucible kwisisombululo sokuncedisa liphezulu, ngelixa izinga lokushisa kwi-crystal yembewu liphantsi. Ngethuba lenkqubo yokukhula, i-graphite crucible inikeza umthombo we-C wokukhula kwekristale. Ngenxa yokuba iqondo lokushisa eludongeni lwe-crucible liphezulu, i-solubility ye-C inkulu, kwaye isantya sokuchithwa ngokukhawuleza, isixa esikhulu se-C siya kuchithwa eludongeni lwe-crucible ukwenza isisombululo esigcweleyo se-C. Ezi zisombululo ezinobungakanani obukhulu. ye-C echithwe iya kuthuthelwa kwindawo engezantsi yeekristale zembewu nge-convection ngaphakathi kwesisombululo sokuncedisa. Ngenxa yobushushu obuphantsi bembewu ye-crystal end, i-solubility ye-C ehambelanayo iyancipha ngokuhambelanayo, kwaye isisombululo sokuqala se-C-saturated siba sisisombululo esiphezulu se-C emva kokuba sidluliselwe ekupheleni kweqondo lokushisa eliphantsi phantsi kwalo mqathango. I-Suprataturated C kwisisombululo esidibene ne-Si kwisisombululo esincedisayo sinokukhula i-SiC crystal epitaxial kwi-crystal yembewu. Xa i-superforated inxalenye ye-C ikhupha ngaphandle, isisombululo sibuyela ekupheleni kobushushu obuphezulu bodonga lwe-crucible kunye ne-convection, kwaye ichithe i-C kwakhona ukwenza isisombululo esigcweleyo.

Yonke inkqubo iphinda, kwaye i-crystal ye-SiC ikhula. Kwinkqubo yokukhula kwesigaba solwelo, ukuchithwa kunye nemvula ye-C kwisisombululo sisalathiso esibaluleke kakhulu senkqubela phambili yokukhula. Ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukukhula kwe-crystal okuzinzile, kuyimfuneko ukugcina ukulingana phakathi kokuchithwa kwe-C kwindonga ye-crucible kunye nemvula ekupheleni kwembewu. Ukuba ukuchithwa kwe-C kukhulu kunemvula ye-C, ngoko i-C kwi-crystal iphuculwa ngokuthe ngcembe, kwaye i-nucleation ezenzekelayo ye-SiC iya kwenzeka. Ukuba ukuchithwa kweC kungaphantsi kwemvula yeC, ukukhula kwekristale kuya kuba nzima ukuphumeza ngenxa yokungabikho kwe-solute.
Ngexesha elifanayo, ukuthuthwa kwe-C nge-convection nako kuchaphazela ukunikezelwa kwe-C ngexesha lokukhula. Ukuze kukhule iikristale ze-SiC ezinomgangatho wekristale ngokwaneleyo kunye nobukhulu obaneleyo, kuyafuneka ukuba kuqinisekiswe ukulungelelana kwezi zinto zintathu zingasentla, okwandisa kakhulu ubunzima bokukhula kwesigaba solwelo seSiC. Nangona kunjalo, ngokuphuculwa kancinci kunye nokuphuculwa kweethiyori ezinxulumeneyo kunye netekhnoloji, izibonelelo zokukhula kwesigaba solwelo kwiikristale ze-SiC ziya kubonisa ngokuthe ngcembe.
Okwangoku, ukukhula kwesigaba solwelo se-2-intshi ye-SiC crystals kunokufezekiswa eJapan, kwaye ukukhula kwesigaba solwelo se-4-intshi yeekristale kuyaphuhliswa. Okwangoku, uphando lwasekhaya olufanelekileyo aluzange lubone iziphumo ezilungileyo, kwaye kuyimfuneko ukulandelela umsebenzi ofanelekileyo wophando.
