ABSTRACTTwo organosilicon molecules tetraethysilane (TESi) and tetravinylsilane (TVSi) were used to prepare thin films of silicon carbide by chemical vapor deposition (C. V. D.). In each of the molecule, the ratio C/Si = 8, the only difference between TESi and TVSi is the structure of the radicals ethyl (.CH2-CH3) and vinyl (.CH=CH2). This feature induces different thermal behavior and leads to the formation of different materials depending on the nature of the carrier gas He or H2· The decomposition gases are correlated with the material deposited which is investigated by I.R. and Raman spectroscopy. The structure of the starting molecule influences the mechanisms of decomposition and consequently the structure of the material obtained.

Abstract Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a widely used manufacturing process for obtaining thin films of materials like silicon, silicon carbide, graphene and gallium nitride that are employed in the fabrication of electronic and optical devices. Gallium nitride (GaN) thin films are attractive materials for manufacturing optoelectronic device applications due to their wide band gap and superb optoelectronic performance. The reliability and durability of the devices depend on the quality of the thin films. The metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process is a common technique used to fabricate high-quality GaN thin films. The deposition rate and uniformity of thin films are determined by the thermal transport processes and chemical reactions occurring in the reactor, and are manipulated by controlling the operating conditions and the reactor geometrical configuration. In this study, the epitaxial growth of GaN thin films on sapphire (AL2O3) substrates is carried out in two commercial MOCVD systems. This paper focuses on the composition of the precursor and the carrier gases, since earlier studies have shown the importance of precursor composition. The results show that the flow rate of trimethylgallium (TMG), which is the main ingredient in the process, has a significant effect on the deposition rate and uniformity of the films. Also the carrier gas plays an important role in deposition rate and uniformity. Thus, the use of an appropriate mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen as the carrier gas can improve the deposition rate and quality of GaN thin films.
