J. Salzman et E. Maayan, A KINETIC-MODEL FOR PHOTOENHANCED ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMICAL-VAPOR-DEPOSITION, Semiconductor science and technology, 8(6), 1993, pp. 1094-1100
A kinetic model for chemisorption, dissociation and reaction of non-py
rolysed organometallic species on the surface of a semiconductor is pr
esented. Surface recombination of photogenerated electronic carriers c
an assist the epitaxial growth process. Enhancement of the various rat
e coefficients produced by the localized energy release of surface rec
ombination events, and its implications for the overall growth rate ar
e discussed.
