Abstract
Chemical vapor deposition of silicon carbide from methyltrichlorosilan e in hydrogen carrier gas is modeled. The governing fluid flow, energy , and species conservation equations are solved numerically in two dim ensions. A kinetic model consisting of fourteen chlorosilane and hydro carbon reactions is used. Results are presented in terms of flow patte rns, species distributions, and growth parameters for various reactor pressures.
