Halidosilane compounds, processes for synthesizing halidosilane compounds, compositions comprising halidosilane precursors, and processes for depositing silicon- containing films (e.g., silicon, amorphous silicon, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon carbide, silicon oxynitride, silicon carbonitride, doped silicon films, and metal-doped silicon nitride films) using halidosilane precursors. Examples of halidosilane precursor compounds described herein, include, but are not limited to, monochlorodisilane (MCDS), monobromodisilane (MBDS), monoiododisilane (MIDS), monochlorotrisilane (MCTS), and monobromotrisilane (MBTS), monoiodotrisilane (MITS). Also described herein are methods for depositing silicon containing films such as, without limitation, silicon, amorphous silicon, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon carbide, silicon oxynitride, silicon carbonitride, doped silicon films, and metal-doped silicon nitride films, at one or more deposition temperatures of about 500°C or less. |
