The title reactions are investigated by guided ion beam mass spectrometry. Absolute cross sections are determined as a function of the relative collision energy. In the reaction of SiH/sup +/ with D/sub 2/, the lowest energy process is the near thermoneutral H/D exchange reaction. At energies above about 2 eV, several minor processes are observed: deuterium atom transfer to form SiHD/sup +/, H/D/sub 2/ exchange to yield SiD/sub 2//sup +/, and collision-induced dissociation into Si/sup +/ and H. The reaction of SiD/sup +/ + H/sub 2/ is observed to have analogous product channels with nearly identical energy behaviors. The translational energy dependence of the collision-induced dissociation of SiD/sub 3//sup +/ is shown to correlate well with the reaction of SiH/sup +/ (SiD/sup +/) + D/sub 2/ (H/sub 2/). This supports the intermediacy of SiHD/sub 2//sup +/ (SiH/sub 2/D/sup +/) for the H/D isotope exchange reaction. The thermochemistry of all these reactions is in good agreement with previous studies indicates that there are no activation barriers in excess of the endothermicities.
