Abstract: In some aspects, methods of forming a metal sulfide thin film are provided. According to some methods, a metal sulfide thin film is deposited on a substrate in a reaction space in a cyclical process where at least one cycle includes alternately and sequentially contacting the substrate with a first vapor-phase metal reactant and a second vapor-phase sulfur reactant. In some aspects, methods of forming a three-dimensional architecture on a substrate surface are provided. In some embodiments, the method includes forming a metal sulfide thin film on the substrate surface and forming a capping layer over the metal sulfide thin film. The substrate surface may comprise a high-mobility channel.

Abstract: A system and a method for passivating a surface of a semiconductor. The method includes providing the surface of the semiconductor to a reaction chamber of a reactor, exposing the surface of the semiconductor to a gas-phase metal containing precursor in the reaction chamber and exposing the surface of the semiconductor to a gas-phase chalcogenide containing precursor. The methods also include passivating the surface of the semiconductor using the gas-phase metal containing precursor and the gas-phase chalcogenide containing precursor to form a passivated surface. The system for passivating a surface of a semiconductor may include a reactor, a metal containing precursor source fluidly coupled to the reactor, and a chalcogenide containing precursor source fluidly couple to the reactor, wherein the metal containing precursor source provides a gas-phase metal containing precursor to a reaction chamber of the reactor, and wherein the chalcogenide containing precursor source provides a gas-phase chalcogenide containing precursor to a reaction chamber of the reactor.
