摘要:
A process for depositing a thin film of a transition metal nitride, e.g., titanium nitride, on a substrate is provided. The vapors of a transition metal organometallic coompound or a transition metal amido compound are mixed with ammonia gas and allowed to react near a substrate heated to a temperature in the range of 100.degree. C. to 400.degree. C., resulting in deposition of a film on the substrate.
摘要:
Novel cyclic amides containing tin or lead are disclosed. These cyclic amides can be used for atomic layer deposition or chemical vapor deposition of tin or lead as well as their oxides, sulfides, selenides, nitrides, phosphides, carbides, silicides or borides or other compounds. Tin(IV) oxide, SnO2, films were deposited by reaction of a cyclic tin amide vapor and H2O2 or NO2 as oxygen sources. The films have high purity, smoothness, transparency, electrical conductivity, density, and uniform thickness even inside very narrow holes or trenches. Deposition temperatures are low enough for thermally sensitive substrates such as plastics. Suitable applications of these films include displays, light-emitting diodes, solar cells and gas sensors. Doping SnO2 with aluminum was used to reduce its conductivity, making material suitable as the active semiconductor layer in electron multipliers or transparent transistors. Deposition using the same tin precursor and H2S deposited tin monosulfide, SnS, a material suitable for solar cells.
摘要:
There are provided methods for functionalizing a planar surface of a microelectronic structure, by exposing the surface to at least one vapor including at least one functionalization species, such as NO2 or CH3ONO, that non-covalently bonds to the surface while providing a functionalization layer of chemically functional groups, to produce a functionalized surface. The functionalized surface is exposed to at least one vapor stabilization species that reacts with the functionalization layer to form a stabilization layer that stabilizes the functionalization layer against desorption from the planar microelectronic surface while providing chemically functional groups. The stabilized surface is exposed to at least one material layer precursor species that deposits a material layer on the stabilized planar microelectronic surface. The stabilized planar microelectronic surface can be annealed at a peak annealing temperature that is less than about 700° C.

The invention provides methods functionalizing a planar surface of a graphene layer, a graphite surface, or microelectronic structure. The graphene layer, graphite surface, or planar microelectronic structure surface is exposed to at least one vapor including at least one functionalization species that non-covalently bonds to the graphene layer, a graphite surface, or planar microelectronic surface while providing a functionalization layer of chemically functional groups, to produce a functionalized graphene layer, graphite surface, or planar microelectronic surface.
摘要:
Metal silicates or phosphates are deposited on a heated substrate by the reaction of vapors of alkoxysilanols or alkylphosphates along with reactive metal amides, alkyls or alkoxides. For example, vapors of tris(tert-butoxy)silanol react with vapors of tetrakis(ethylmethylamido)hafnium to deposit hafnium silicate on surfaces heated to 300° C. The product film has a very uniform stoichiometry throughout the reactor. Similarly, vapors of diisopropylphosphate react with vapors of lithium bis(ethyldimethylsilyl)amide to deposit lithium phosphate films on substrates heated to 250° C. Supplying the vapors in alternating pulses produces these same compositions with a very uniform distribution of thickness and excellent step coverage.
摘要:
Fims of fluorine-doped zinc oxide are deposited from vaporized precursor compounds comprising a chelate of a dialkylzinc, such as an amine chelate, an oxygen source, and a fluorine source. The coatings are highly electrically conductive, transparent to visible light, reflective to infrared radiation, absorbing to ultraviolet light, and free of carbon impurity.
摘要:
Films of metal oxides are deposited from vaporized precursor compounds, such as metal alkoxides, by reaction with the vapor of a compound, such as cyclohexenone, that is derived formally from a stable aromatic compound by replacing one hydrogen with a ketone functional group (.dbd.O) and adding three hydrogen atoms to other atoms in the aromatic system. For example, the vapor of titanium (IV) isopropoxide reacts with the vapor of 2-cyclohexen-1-one to deposit titanium dioxide at 400.degree. C. The deposit is highly transparent and free of carbon impurity. This vapor mixture with added aluminum isopropoxide deposits a highly insulating film of aluminum-doped titanium dioxide.

A method is disclosed for the volatilization and transport of an alkaline earth metal precursor. The presence of an amine or ammonia significantly increases transport of the voltalized alkaline earth metal precursor as compared to transport under the same conditions but without the amine or ammonia.
