The pyrolysis of a poly ethylsilazane was studied using a CO{sub 2}-laser beam heated solid state MAS-NMR probe head. Chemical structures of the intermediate stages could be identified. The analogy of the pyrolysis evolution for the following two different methods could be shown: (A) in an inert gas furnace conventionally prepared and (B) laser irradiated in the NMR probe head under magic-angle spinning (MAS) conditions. Samples prepared by method A were studied by {sup 29}Si MAS-NMR and samples prepared by method B were studied with an appropriate cross polarization time by {sup 29}Si CP-MAS-NMR. Both experiments showed the same mechanisms for the pyrolysis as the polymer is transformed into a Si{sub 3}N{sub 4}/C ceramic.
