The growth of continuous silicon monocrystalline thin films on 3C-SiC epilayers deposited on silicon substrates is presented in this study. Such heterostructures can be beneficial for the fabrication of Micro Electro Mechanical Systems or electronic applications. The elaboration of these heterostructures was carried out using Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition. X-ray Diffraction, Fourier Transformed Infra-Red spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy have been used to investigate the structural properties of Si epilayers and their dependence on growth conditions. Monocrystalline Si (110) films are obtained on 3CSiC(100)/Si (100) substrates, only when using growth temperatures close to 850°C. The strong influence of the underlying 3C-SiC film on the final structural properties of Si epilayer is evidenced.
