Silicon carbide films on silicon have been grown by annealing of pre-deposited C-60 film on silicon at T = 900 degrees C for 300 min. C-60 molecules are confined on the surface during annealing by a non-volatile carbon layer produced by irradiation of the C-60 film with an ion gun (Ar+ or Ga+). During annealing the C-60 film confined in the irradiated areas forms SiC while the remaining C-60 evaporates off. These results introduce a new method of direct patterning SiC structures on Si with submicron resolution.
