Title: Heterogeneous reaction mechanisms and kinetics relevant to the CVD of semiconductor materials

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10146724· OSTI ID:10146724

This report documents the state of the art in experimental and theoretical techniques for determining reaction mechanisms and chemical kinetics of heterogeneous reactions relevant to the chemical vapor deposition of semiconductor materials. It summarizes the most common ultra-high vacuum experimental techniques that are used and the types of rate information available from each. Several case studies of specific chemical systems relevant to the microelectronics industry are described. Theoretical methods for calculating heterogeneous reaction rate constants are also summarized.
