Summary:PURPOSE:To efficiently remove the oxygen contained in a gaseous hydride down to an extremely low concn. by bringing the crude gaseous hydride into contact with the silicide of nickel. CONSTITUTION:The crude gaseous hydride is brought into contact with the silicide of the nickel to remove the oxygen incorporated into the crude gaseous hydride. The concn. of the oxygen in the gaseous hydride is lowered down to <=0.01ppm, further to about <=0.001ppm by the above mentioned method. The gaseous hydride is exemplified by phosphine, hydrogen selenide, silane, and diborane, etc. The silicide of the nickel is exemplified by nickel silicide, such as Ni3Si, Ni2Si, Ni3Si2, and Ni2Si3 and the nickel to which silicon is combined in various other forms. A method for bringing, for example, silane, into contact with nickel is utilized as a sample method in order to obtain the silicide of the nickel.
