摘要:

The deposition rate, phase, chemical composition and microstructure of deposits were determined from 950 oC to 1100 oC. With temperature increasing, the deposition rate increases, the morphology changes from smooth to coarse, meanwhile the concentration of silicon increases and boron decreases. The deposition process is controlled by chemical reactions, and the activation energy is 271 kJ/mol. At low temperature (950 oC), the deposition process is dominated by formation of B4C. While at high temperature (above 1000 oC), it is governed by formation of SiC. B4C and SiC disperse uniformly in the Si-B-C co-deposition system and form a dense network structure.

Abstract:

The deposition rate, phase, chemical composition and microstructure of deposits were determined from 950 to 1100 °C. With increasing temperature, the deposition rate increases, and the morphology changes from smooth to coarse, meanwhile, the concentration of silicon increases while that of boron decreases. The deposition process is controlled by chemical reactions, and the activation energy is 271 kJ/mol. At relatively lower temperature (below 1000 °C), the deposition process is dominated by formation of B4C. While at higher temperature (above 1000 °C), it is governed by formation of SiC. B4C and SiC disperse uniformly in the Si-B-C co-deposition system and form a dense network structure.
