This is the first of three Gmelin Handbook volumes in the silicon se ries that will cover silicon nitride, a normaUy solid material with the idealized formula Si N . This volume, 3 4 "Silicon" Supplement Volume B Sc, is devoted to applications of silicon nitride in microelec tronics and solar ceUs. The compendium is the product of a critical selection among more than 17600 publications on silicon nitride issued up to January 1990. Out of a total of 5900 publications dealing with the fabrication and use of microelectronic devices (including 2400 Japanese patent applications), about 4000 papers have been selected for this volume. The current volume is grouped into three parts. Chapters 2 to 8 deal with general, non specific microelectronic applications of silicon nitride, Chapters 9 to 31 cover applications of silicon nitride in specific devices and device components, and Chapter 32 is devoted exclusively to applications in solar ceUs, including information on our general understanding of the role of silicon nitride in photovoltaic devices. Experimental results on the preparation of silicon nitride layers for application in unspeci fied devices are in Chapter 2. Whenever the preparation is in connection with specific devices, the information is presented in the respective chapters. The general preparation of silicon nitride layers is not covered in this volume, but will appear in "Silicon" Supplement Volume B 5a. See also the Introductory Remarks, Chapter 1, p. 1.
This is the first supplementary volume on silicon-nitrogen compounds. It begins with the system silicon-nitrogen and continues with the binary silicon nitrides, except for Si3N4 that will be the subject of a separate Handbook volume. A chapter describes anionic formula units of the type SixNr and includes a condensed description of a series of ternary silicon nitrides. A treatment follows of the molecular and polymeric silicon-nitrogen-hydrogen compounds in which hydrogen is bonded either to silicon, or to nitrogen, or to both. In other words, those compounds have been selected for this chapter in which one or more nitrogen atoms are bonded to silicon and also those compounds in which additional silicon and/or hydrogen have been bonded to the initial silicon. About 60% of this volume contains a description of predominantly molecular silicon nitrogen compounds that are substituted at the nitrogen with groups containing other elements. According to the Gmelin System the substituting groups may be bonded through sulfur, boron, carbon, or both sulfur and carbon, or both boron and carbon. As may be expected, the largest quantity of information exists for compounds that have organyl substi tuents on the nitrogen, including the class of silicon coordination compounds that fulfill the criteria. In particular in these chapters, sections and subsections have been formed grouping compounds of the same class together. Compounds containing silicon--carbon bonds any where in the molecule are not covered in this volume. General remarks have been given to introduce chapters and to link chapters and sections.
The volume is concerned exclusively with all the binary species formed between the elements silicon and fluorine such as SiF, SiF2, SiF3, SiF4, and Sif62-. Most of the volume, i.e. 144 pages, is devoted to the description of the well known physical and chemical properties of the SiF4 as well as to its preparation. This is followed in length by the report on SiF2 with its interesting chemistry, along with a section on the diatomic radical SiF. Species with fivefold and sixfold coordination of silicon are exemplified by SiF5- and by the well known SiF62-. Interestingly, the detailed models for describing the bonding situation in both ions are still a matter of discussion. While for Si2F6 most of the basic data are known, information on the chemical and physical properties of the higher members of the acylic perfluorosilanes, SinF2n+2, is scarce. All available information on the unstable cyclic perfluorosilanes of composition (SiF2)n and some even more exotic species is also included.
The volume provides complete and up-to-date information on the few chemical species composed of silicon, fluorine, and noble gases and in the major part on the species composed of silicon, fluorine, and hydrogen. Among the numerous experimentally confirmed and theoretically predicted monosilicon Si-H-F species with Si coordination numbers 2, 3, and 4, the most prominent and best investigated molecules by far are Si H3F, Si H2F2, and Si H F3. Even more has been reported about aqueous solutions of hexafluorosilicic acid, "H2Si F6", a system which is not yet completely understood. Some of the isomers of partially fluorinated di-, tri-, and tetrasilanes are known to some extent, but information on the higher acyclic and cyclic polysilanes is increasingly sparce.
