Abstract

The electron and lattice contributions to the linear and quadratic dielectric susceptibilities of the hexagonal polytype of silicon carbide 2H-SiC are calculated within the Harrison bond-orbital model. The results obtained are in satisfactory agreement with the calculations performed by other authors and are close in order of magnitude to the corresponding values for the 6H-SiC polytype.
