Electron scattering from disilane (Si2H6) molecules. Absolute total cross section measurements from 1 to 370 eV

摘要

Absolute grand total cross sections (TCSs) for electron-disilane (Si2H6) scattering have been measured over the energy range from 1 to 370 eV in a linear transmission experiment. The low-energy TCS is dominated by a broad resonant-like enhancement. In the region of the maximum the present grand TCS values appeared to be distinctly lower than previously reported integral elastic cross section data. A comparison of total electron scattering cross sections for the two simplest silicon hydrides and relevant hydrocarbons is given. [References: 25]
