7 results about "Polysilicon halides" patented technology

Polysilicon halides are silicon-backbone polymeric solids. At room temperature, the polysilicon fluorides are colorless to yellow solids while the chlorides, bromides, and iodides are, respectively, yellow, amber, and red-orange. Polysilicon dihalides (perhalo-polysilenes) have the general formula (SiX₂)ₙ while the polysilicon monohalides (perhalo-polysilynes) have the formula (SiX)ₙ, where X is F, Cl, Br, or I and n is the number of monomer units in the polymer.
