Abstract

We describe how the composition of an organic - based magnet can be controlled by varying the Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) conditions. A study was conducted for the Co2(CO)8/ TCNE system to form cobalt tetracyanoethylene [Co(TCNE)x, x∼2, a paramagnetic material], and for the V(CO)6/ TCNEx system to form vanadium tetracyanoethylene [V(TCNE)x, x∼2, a ferrimagnetic material]. Thin V(TCNE)x, x∼2 films (∼0.05-0.5 μm) with room temperature conductivity of 10-4<σRT<10-3S/cm and magnetic ordering temperature Tc of up to ∼400K were deposited. The V(TCNE)x, x∼2 thin films have the potential for incorporation in a spin-valve device as one of the magnetic contacts, and are promising candidates to form optically controlled magnetic-based structures.
