ABSTRACTCompounds of the type (L2MEL'2)x, where M and E are the group III and V elements, respectively, and L and L' are ligands which may be thermally eliminated are being studied as single source precursors to III-V semiconductors. An array of these compounds have been synthesized with various III-V combinations, and hydride and alkyl ligands. Film growth was studied over the temperature range of 450-600 °C and at 10−4 Torr. Growth rates of 1 μm/hr are typical when the compounds are maintained at 125-140 °C. (Me2Ga(μ-t-Bu2As) [2 led to films which were polygrained with the grains oriented in the (111) direction and retained the 1:1 stoichiometry of the precursor. Films from [Me2Ga(μ-i-Pr2As)]3 did not retain the 1:1 stoichiometry and did not show the preference for (111)- oriented growth.

AbstractSeveral single-source precursors including In(SOCNiBu2)3, In(S2CNMeHex)3 and Ga(S2CNMeR)3, (R = Et, Bu, Hex) have been prepared and used for the deposition of Group 13 metal sulfide thin films. The α and β-In2S3thin films on borosilicate glass and oc-Ga 2S3thin films on GaAs(111) single crystal substrates were prepared from the precursors by various chemical vapour deposition (CVD) techniques. These semicondcuting materials have been characterized by XRD, SEM, XPS and EDAX.

AbstractHerein we report our efforts to prepare new precursors to niobium nitride (NbN) and tantalum nitride (TAN, Ta3N5) thin films. Treatment of MC15 (M = Nb, Ta) with tertbutylamine in benzene solvent affords complexes of the formula [MCI2 (NtBu)(NHtBu)(NH2tBu)]2. The niobium complex [NbC12(NtBu)(NHtBu)- (NH2tBu)]2 affords NbN films on glass substrates between 500-600 °C, while the tantalum analog [TaC12(NtBu)(NHtBu)(NH2tBu)]2 gives films of Ta3N5 in this temperature range. Treatment of MCI5 (M = Nb, Ta) with 1,1-dimethylhydrazine in dichloromethane solvent affords complexes of the formula [MC12(NNMe2)(NHNMe2)(NH2NMe2)]n. These hydrazido complexes afford cubic MN films upon glass substrates at ≥400°C. Analyses of the films are presented.

AbstractThe OMCVD of AlN, GaN and InN thin films using the novel single source precursors (N3)2Ga[(CH2)3NMe2] (1), (N3)In[(CH2)3NMe2]2 (2) and (N3)Al(CH2)3NMe2]2 (3) is reported. The compounds are non-pyrophoric. Compound 2 is air stable. No additional N-sources were used for the growth of the nitrides. We achieved epitaxial (AlN, GaN) or polycrystalline (InN) growth at least 200°C below the decomposition temperature of the respective nitride. Some aspects of the reactivity of the precursors with ammonia and the resulting influence on the deposition process were investigated.
