Raman spectroscopy is employed to study both the strain and the carbon substitution level in SiC-doped MgB2 bulk samples. Raman spectroscopy was demonstrated to be a better method to distinguish the individual influences of strain and carbon than standard X-ray diffraction. It is found that the latt...
