T. Kunstmann et al., NOVEL BROMINATED CARBOSILANE PRECURSORS FOR LOW-TEMPERATURE HETEROEPITAXY OF BETA-SIC AND THEIR COMPARISON WITH METHYLTRICHLOROSILANE, Chemistry of materials, 7(9), 1995, pp. 1675-1679
Novel organometallic precursors, 1,3-bis(monobromosilyl)propane, 1,2-b
is(monobromosilyl)ethane, and methyltribromosilane, for low-temperatur
e deposition of beta-SiC have been developed, and the kinetics and mec
hanism of their decomposition investigated. On the basis of the result
s, heteroepitaxial thin films of beta-SiC with very good structural qu
ality have been deposited on (100) Si using methyltribromosilane and m
ethyltrichlorosilane.
