This is supported by the C-C peak at \distn{0.252}, which corresponds to the second next neighbor distance in the diamond structure of elemental C. Investigating the atomic data indeed reveals two C atoms, which are bound to and interconnected by a third C atom, to be responsible for this distance. -The C-C peak at about \distn{0.31}, which is slightly shifted to higher distances (\distn{0.317}) with increasing temperature still corresponds quite well to the next neighbor distance of C in 3C-SiC as well as a-SiC and indeed results from C-Si-C bonds. +The C-C peak at about \distn{0.31}, which is slightly shifted to higher distances (\distn{0.317}) with increasing temperature still corresponds quite well to the next neighbor distance of C in 3C-SiC as well as a-SiC and, indeed, results from C-Si-C bonds. The Si-C peak at \distn{0.282}, which is pronounced with increasing temperature, is constructed out of a Si atom and a C atom, which are both bound to another central C atom. This is similar for the Si-C peak at approximately \distn{0.35}. In this case, the Si and the C atom are bound to a central Si atom. -- 2.20.1
