Abstract

The photochemical reaction of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) and ozone (O3) in the gas phase was analyzed as the side reaction in the photochemical vapor deposition (photo-CVD) process irradiated by ultraviolet light: the analysis was conducted by Fourier-transform infrared absorption spectroscopy (FT-IR) and mass spectrometry (MS). The final products of this photochemical reaction between HMDS and O3 are CO2, N 2, and H2O, although this reaction is initiated at the Si-N-Si bond of HMDS with O3 and ultraviolet (UV) light, thus producing, as a reaction intermediate, a compound with carbonyl and/or carboxylic group followed by Si-N-Si scission.
