Cz. Li et al., STUDY ON THE MECHANISM OF ALUMINUM NITRIDE SYNTHESIS BY CHEMICAL-VAPOR-DEPOSITION, Materials chemistry and physics, 47(2-3), 1997, pp. 273-278
Ultrafine aluminum nitride particles were synthesized by chemical vapo
r deposition at 973-1273 K. Effects of reaction temperature, gas total
how rate, aluminum chloride concentration on aluminum nitride particl
e morphology and particle size distribution were studied. The mechanis
m of the reaction between aluminum chloride and ammonia and the mechan
isms for homogeneous formation of aluminum nitride particles and growt
h of aluminum nitride film by surface reactions were investigated.
