Tris(trimethylsilyl)methylsilane was used as a single sou- cursor for depositing beta-SiC thin films low pressure chemical vapor deposition. Deposition of uniform on Si (111) substrate was carried out at temperatures 873-1473 K in a re-asma- enhanced hot-wall reactor.Morphology of the films there was altered by deposition temperature and the precursorization temperature.Their crystallinity could be improvedgen plasma was used to assist deposition.The results indicated that when deposition between 1073K and 1473K,there were two kinds of growth mechanisms.Below 1273K the reactionsurface reaction controlled and the energy of acti- vation was 28.8kcal/mol, above 1273K the process was diffusion controlled.When hydrogen plasma was used to assist the depo- sition,the energy of activation was 22.8kcal/mol.Carbon andn distributions are oniform in the films. Elementalwas characterized to be C/ Si=1.1-1.8.In general the Si/C ratios of the films were close to 1 at high temper-of deposition.
