Separation of Silicon Isotopes by Silicon Tetrafluoride–Silane Technology

  • Published:
Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

Silane enriched in silicon isotopes was obtained in high yield by reacting SiF4 with a solution of NaAlH4 in diethylene glycol dimethyl ether in a purpose-designed apparatus. Chemical analyses are presented for isotopically enriched silicon obtained by the thermal decomposition of silane.
