On silicon substrate, PCl3 firstly undergoes dissociative adsorption, and then the adsorption product reacts with H2 via a four-step multi-channel mode to give the final product PSi4 cluster. The geometries at each stationary point were fully optimized. The possible transition states were determined by vibrational mode analysis and IRC verification. And finally, the main reaction channel was given.展开更多
