Fluorination of tungsten and rhenium produces tungsten hexafluoride, WF, and rhenium hexafluoride [10049-17-9J, ReF, respectively. These volatile metal fluorides are used in the chemical vapor deposition industry to produce metal coatings and intricately shaped components (see Thin films,... 

Germanium difluoride can be prepared by reduction (2,4) of GeF by metallic germanium, by reaction (1) of stoichiometric amounts of Ge and HF in a sealed vessel at 225°C, by Ge powder and HgF2 (5), and by GeS and PbF2 (6). Gep2 has been used in plasma chemical vapor deposition of amorphous film (see Plasma TECHNOLOGY Thin films) (7). 

Molybdenum hexafluoride is used in the manufacture of thin films (qv) for large-scale integrated circuits (qv) commonly known as LSIC systems (3,4), in the manufacture of metallised ceramics (see MetaL-MATRIX COMPOSITES) (5), and chemical vapor deposition of molybdenum and molybdenum—tungsten alloys (see Molybdenumand molybdenum alloys) (6,7). The latter process involves the reduction of gaseous metal fluorides by hydrogen at elevated temperatures to produce metals or their alloys such as molybdenum—tungsten, molybdenum—tungsten—rhenium, or molybdenum—rhenium alloys. 

Rhenium hexafluoride is used for the deposition of rhenium metal films for electronic, semiconductor, laser parts (6—8), and in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes which involve the reduction of ReF by hydrogen at elevated (550—750°C) temperatures and reduced (<101.3 kPa (1 atm)) pressures (9,10). 

Deposition of Thin Films. Laser photochemical deposition has been extensively studied, especially with respect to fabrication of microelectronic stmctures (see Integrated circuits). This procedure could be used in integrated circuit fabrication for the direct generation of patterns. Laser-aided chemical vapor deposition, which can be used to deposit layers of semiconductors, metals, and insulators, could define the circuit features. The deposits can have dimensions in the micrometer regime and they can be produced in specific patterns. Laser chemical vapor deposition can use either of two approaches. 

This article focuses primarily on the properties of the most extensively studied III—V and II—VI compound semiconductors and is presented in five sections (/) a brief summary of the physical (mechanical and electrical) properties of the 2incblende cubic semiconductors (2) a description of the metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process. MOCVD is the preferred technology for the commercial growth of most heteroepitaxial semiconductor material (J) the physics and (4) apphcations of electronic and photonic devices and (5) the fabrication process technology in use to create both electronic and photonic devices and circuits. 

Tertiary stibines have been widely employed as ligands in a variety of transition metal complexes (99), and they appear to have numerous uses in synthetic organic chemistry (66), eg, for the olefination of carbonyl compounds (100). They have also been used for the formation of semiconductors by the metal—organic chemical vapor deposition process (101), as catalysts or cocatalysts for a number of polymerization reactions (102), as ingredients of light-sensitive substances (103), and for many other industrial purposes. 

Reactions of boron ttihalides that are of commercial importance are those of BCl, and to a lesser extent BBr, with gases in chemical vapor deposition (CVD). CVD of boron by reduction, of boron nitride using NH, and of boron carbide using CH on transition metals and alloys are all technically important processes (34—38). The CVD process is normally supported by heating or by plasma formed by an arc or discharge (39,40). 

Dimethylcadmium has found use as a volatile source of Cd for metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) production of cadmium-containing semiconductor thin films (qv) such as CdS, Cdi 2 Hg -Te, or Cdi 2 Mn -Te, as multiple quantum weU species (32). Semiconductor-grade material seUs for... 

Alternative Thin-Film Fabrication Approaches. Thin films of electronic ceramic materials have also been prepared by sputtering, electron beam evaporation, laser ablation, chemical beam deposition, and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In the sputtering process, targets may be metal...
