AbstractMolecular-beam mass spectrometry has been used to study plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) of diamondlike carbon films. A threshold-ionization technique was used to identify and quantify species in the plasma. Mole fractions of H, H2, CH4, C2H2, C2H6 and Ar were measured in an 83.3% CH4/Ar mixture at a pressure of 0.1 torr and a total flow of 30 sccm. Comparisons were made between mole fractions measured at plasma powers of 25W and 50W. These results were compared to measured concentration profiles and to film growth rates.

AbstractTetrakis(dimethylamino)titanium (TDMAT) is an important precursor for TiN, TiCN, and TiSiN thin films in chemical vapor deposition. In order to better understand how the gas phase chemistry influences the formation of these films, the decomposition of TDMAT has been studied in a high-temperature flow reactor (HTFR) by molecular beam mass spectrometry (MBMS). Two kinetic regimes have been observed as a function of temperature. Rate expressions and mechanistic implications will be presented. Further studies are in progress to identify the gas phase species relevant to the decomposition mechanism of TDMAT.
