NITROGEN TRIFLUORIDE Uses

NITROGEN TRIFLUORIDE(7783-54-2)is used in the plasma etching of silicon wafers. Today it is mainly employed in the cleaning of the PECVD chambers in the high volume production of liquid crystal displays and silicon-based thin film solar cells. In these applications NF3 is initially broken down in situ, by a plasma. The resulting fluorine atoms are the active cleaning agents that attack the polysilicon,silicon nitride and silicon oxide. Nitrogen trifluoride can be used as well with tungsten silicide, and tungsten produced by CVD. Erroneously NF3 has been considered as an environmentally preferable substitute for perfluorocarbons such as hexafluoroethane,sulfur hexafluoride etc. The process utilization of the chemicals applied in plasma processes is typically below 20 %. Therefore some of the PFCs and also of the NF3 always escape into the atmosphere. Modern gas abatement systems can decrease such emissions.

Recently elemental fluorine has been introduced as an environmentally friendly replacement for nitrogen trifluoride in state-of-the-art high volume manufacturing of flat panel displays and solar cell manufacturing.

NITROGEN TRIFLUORIDE(7783-54-2) is also used in hydrogen fluoride and deuterium fluoride lasers, which are types of chemical lasers. It is preferred to fluorine gas due to its convenient handling properties, reflecting its considerable stability.

It is compatible with steel and Monel, as well as several plastics.

NITROGEN TRIFLUORIDE Production

NF3 is a rare example of a binary fluoride that cannot be prepared directly from the elements (i.e., N2 does not react with F2). Almost all other elements in the periodic table react directly, often violently, with fluorine.
Today, it is prepared both by direct reaction of ammonia and fluorine and by a variation of Ruff's method.It is supplied in pressurized cylinders.

NITROGEN TRIFLUORIDE Safety Profile

A poison. Mildly toxic by inhalation. Prolonged absorption may cause mottling of teeth, skeletal changes. Severe explosion hazard by chemical reaction with reducing agents, particularly when under pressure. A very dangerous fire hazard; a very powerful oxidizer; otherwise inert at normal temperatures and pressures. Reacts violently when ignited with H2. When pure (dry) it does not attack glass or mercury at normal temperatures. Can react violently with NH3, CO, diborane, H2, H2S, CH4, tetrafluorohydrazine. Can react vigorously with reducing materials. Particularly hazardous under pressure. Incompatible with charcoal, hydrogen-containing compounds, tetrafluorohydrazine. When heated to decomposition it emits highly toxic fumes of F−. See also FLUORIDES.

NITROGEN TRIFLUORIDE Specification

NF3 is a greenhouse gas, with a GWP 17,200 times greater than that of CO2 when compared over a 100 year period. Its GWP would place it second only to SF6 in the group of Kyoto-recognised greenhouse gases, although NF3 is not currently included in that grouping. It has an estimated atmospheric lifetime of 740 years, although other work suggests a slightly shorter lifetime of 550 years (and a corresponding GWP of 16,800).
