Title: Localized electron beam induced deposition of silicon carbide

Abstract

A method for produce a silicon-carbide film by admitting a gaseous silicon-carbide precursor into a vacuum chamber containing a substrate and directing an electron beam into the vacuum chamber onto to the surface of the substrate. The electron beam dissociates the gaseous silicon-carbide precursor at the surface of the substrate creating non-volatile fragments that bind to the substrate surface forming a silicon-carbide film.
