Models for thermal dissociation of silane on a polysilicon surface

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleScientificpeer-review

Abstract

Simple models for the thermally activated dissociation reaction of silane and silicon growth on a polycrystalline silicon surface are presented. The models are fitted to recent experimental molecular beam scattering data for the low-pressure reactive sticking coefficient. Thermally activated few-step models fit the data reasonably well, and thus, we are able to explain the temperature and pressure dependencies of the observed deposition rate.
