science-softCon uv/vis+ photochemistry database; www.photochemistry.org; (C) science-softCon 2019 Substance: silicon tetrachloride Other Names: silane, tetrachloro- Formula: SiCl4 CAS-No.: 10026-04-7 Study: uv absorption cross sections Authors: T. Ibuki, N. Washida, U. Itoh, Y. Toyoshima, H. Onuki Title: Absorption spectra of SiCl4, Si2Cl6, SiF3CH3 and GeF4 in the VUV region Journal/Source: Chem. Phys. Lett., 136 (5), 447-450, (1987); DOI: 10.1016/0009-2614(87)80284-1 Data: table, diagram Energy/Wavelength range: ~ 8 - 11 eV (~ 110 - 155 nm) Resolution: Temperature: Temperature dependence: Pressure/Concentration: Phase: pH: Comments: In the range 110-200 nm the absorption features of Si2Cl6 closely resemble those of SiCl4 and the peaks observed are tentatively assigned to the Rydberg transitions of a Cl lone-pair electron.
