Mechanism and dynamics of the reaction of XeF2 with fluorinated Si(100): Possible role of gas phase dissociation of a surface reaction product in plasmaless etching

Xenon difluoride is observed to react with Si–Si σ-dimer and σ-lattice bonds of Si(100)2×1 at 150 K by single and two atom abstraction at F coverages above 1 ML. As in the limit of zero F coverage, a measurable fraction of the scattered, gas phase product of single atom abstraction, XeF, is sufficie...
