Abstract

The thermal decomposition of AsH3 and TMG is measured insitu under different experimental conditions. Simultaneously the production of H2, CH4 and C2H6 is observed. The data indicate a situation where AsH3 is only partially decomposed at the GaAs surface. The hydrogen released removes additional CH3 groups from the trimethyl-gallium (TMG) molecule, enhances the decomposition of TMG, and thereby forms methane.
