Abstract
For the first time, the desorption coefficient of hydrogen and activation energy of desorption are directly determined during the growth of an Si epitaxial layer from silane in vacuum using experimental data on the degree of surface coverage of an Si wafer with hydrogen. The results obtained are compared with earlier results obtained under low-temperature conditions, for example, by thermodesorption spectrometry. The found values are used to calculate the crystallization coefficient and its dependence on the growth temperature and decomposition rate for monosilane at the growth surface.
