摘要
Results of an STM study of dissociative GeH4 adsorption on Si(1 1 1)-(7 x 7) at 300 K show that GeH4 adsorbs under scission of two Ge-H bonds according to GeH4(g) + 4db --> GeH2(ad) + 2H(ad). GeH2 binds to two adatom dangling bonds in a bridged configuration, while the two released hydrogen atoms saturate two additional dangling bonds. The GeH4 sticking coefficient under these conditions is 1.2 x 10(-6), one order of magnitude smaller than for SiH4. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
