Abstract

Tungsten carbide (WC) layers have been grown epitaxially on tungsten single crystals for the first time by using microwave plasma and electron cyclotron resonance plasma carburization of single-crystalline tungsten. WC on tungsten is grown epitaxially as (0001)WC|| (110)W in the alignment [1\bar210]WC|| [\bar111]W.
