Abstract

We present in this paper a comparison of the photodissociation processes of SiH4 and Si2H6 under pulsed excimer laser at 193 nm. The experimental curves of the gas composition as a function of laser energy density show that the dissociation of Si2H6 results from both one and two-photon absorption whereas SiH4 only absorbs two photons. The deposition yield of Si2H6 has also been determined as a function of the number of laser pulses or initial pressure. These experimental results show the establishment of a stationary state in the gas phase and prove the existence of reverse reactions in the disilane kinetic model. The photodissociation of Si2H6 under UV laser excitation (193 nm) presents, therefore, similar properties to those of SiH4.
