Abstract

The laser-assisted chemical vapor deposition (LCVD) of Fe and W on Si(lll)-(7×7) was investigated under ultrahigh vacuum conditions at 120 K. Multiple internal reflection Fourier transform infrared and Auger electron spectroscopies and temperature programmed desorption and low energy electron diffraction were used to study the adsorption and decomposition of Fe(C0)5 and w(C0)6 on the surface. Neither of the molecules thermally reacts in temperature programmed desorption experiments. Reversible molecular desorption is exclusively observed. Decomposition of both molecules via electronic excitation was induced by ultraviolet, but not visible photons. This was shown by measuring the photodecomposition yield as a function of wavelength. Visible photolysis (λ=720 nm) had no observable effect on either molecule. No surface stable, partially decarbonylated, Fe(C0), x<5, fragments observable with infrared spectroscopy were produced by photolysis. Also, no new features were observed in temperature programmed desorption experiments and only iron was detected on the surface after photolysis. In contrast, initial results indicate that photolysis of W(C0)fi does produce surface stable, W(C0), x<6, fragments.
