KW - electron impact ionization, ionization cross sections, BEB model.
AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">Total ionization collision cross sections are calculated for silicon chloride compounds namely $SiCl,$ $SiCl_2$ and $SiCl_4$ applying binary-encounter-Bethe (BEB) and modified BEB model for projectile energy from the ionization threshold to 1000 eV. The total ionization cross sections obtained using the binary-encounter-Bethe (BEB) model and the modified BEB model are compared with experimental and theoretical results. This model has been found to be successful for a wide range of molecules but for silicon chloride molecules the results are not in good agreement with experimental data.</p>
