Title: Purification of silane via laser-induced chemistry

Abstract

Impurities such as PH.sub.3, AsH.sub.3, and B.sub.2 H.sub.6 may be removed from SiH.sub.4 by means of selective photolysis with ultraviolet radiation of the appropriate wavelength. An ArF laser operating at 193 nm provides an efficient and effective radiation source for the photolysis.
