Description

Boronization of COMPASS has been carried out using trimethyl boron, a less hazardous alternative to diborane used to boronize other machines. Two separate boronizations, using different gas and glow discharge parameters, have been undertaken. Both have resulted in excellent long-term impurity control, albeit with a significant change to the hydrogen recycling characteristics. (orig.)
