Extract

Silanes and their organo-derivatives are of interest as precursors and dopants in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to prepare (modified) thin films with unique surface properties. Applications of these films are widespread: transitors, laser diodes, optoelectronic devices, etc. Film growth, however, is capital intensive and mechanistically complex, while film characterization is time-consuming and often requires sophisticated instrumentation. A tool is needed to prescreen precursors' CVD behavior, preferrably a technique requiring a minimum of time and sample to provide information directly related to aspects of the film growth process.
