Application

Silicon tetrafluoride is used in ion-implantation processes and as a precursor to fluorinated silica via plasma-assisted CVD. Mixtures of SiF4-SiH4-H2 have recently been used to deposit polycrystalline silicon thin films via remote plasma chemical vapor deposition (RPCVD). Such fluorinated thin films show visible photoluminescence (PL) at room temperature.

Packaging

Supplied in a carbon steel lecture bottle with a CGA180M/CGA110F needle valve installed.

Compatible with the following:
  • Aldrich® lecture-bottle station systems
  • Aldrich® lecture-bottle gas regulators
