Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing trisilylamine and polysilazanes in the liquid phase, in which ammonia dissolved in an inert solvent is initially introduced in a substoichiometric amount relative to monochlorosilane which is likewise present in an inert solvent. The reaction is carried out in a reactor in which trisilylamine formed according to the following equation 4NH3+3H3SiCl?3NH4Cl+(SiH3)3N and polysilazanes are formed. The reactor is subsequently depressurized and TSA is separated off in gaseous form from the product mixture. The TSA obtained is purified by filtration and distillation and obtained in high or very high purity. Further ammonia dissolved in an inert solvent is subsequently introduced into the reactor, using, together with the previously introduced amount of ammonia, a stoichiometric excess of ammonia relative to the amount of MCS previously present.

Abstract: An arrangement for the separation of particles from plasma for the formation of a coating onto the surface of a substrate under vacuum conditions. The plasma is advantageously formed by electrical arc discharge. The plasma is formed from a target that can be connected as a cathode and positive charge carriers of the plasma are accelerated in the direction of a surface of a substrate to be coated by at least one absorber electrode connected to an electrical potential that is positive with respect to the plasma. The absorber electrode is arranged and orientated such that a direct incidence of plasma onto the absorber electrode is avoided and can be designed in plate form aligned at an obliquely inclined angle which takes account of the divergence of the plasma flow. In addition, at least one permanent magnet or electromagnet element is a component of the arrangement.

Abstract: An optical assembly for use in coherent two- or more-dimensional optical spectroscopy includes a beam splitter that splits a base light pulse into first, second, third and fourth light pulse and a delay element that varies the arrival times of the first to fourth light pulses at a sample location with respect to each other. The beam splitter includes a cross-grating a first reflector arranged to receive the first to fourth light pulses emerging from the cross-grating and to reflect the same in parallel to each other, a second reflector arranged to receive the first to fourth light pulses from the delay element and to focus the same at the sample location, wherein the delay element is arranged between first and second reflectors. Also shown is an apparatus including such optical assembly and a method for carrying out two- or more-dimensional optical spectroscopy using the assembly.
