Adsorption of HCl, DCl and Cl 2 on high surface area germanium films was studied by means of IR absorption spectra. The films were prepared by high temperature evaporation of germanium in a helium atmosphere. On adsorption of HCl and DCl two main absorptions appeared at 460 cm −1 and 408 cm −1 and additional weaker bands at 2050 cm −1 and 2920 cm −1 (with HCl) and at 1313 cm −1 (with DCl). The spectra indicate that both gases undergo dissociation on adsorption. In the case of Cl 2 the bands at 460 cm −1 and 408 cm −1 appeared in the spectrum; here again strong evidence exists that dissociative adsorption takes place. Mass spectrometer analysis showed that the desorption product consists mainly of GeCl 4 .
