Spectroscopic and Structural Studies of Some Precursors for the Deposition of PZT and Related Materials by MOCVD
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
MOCVD is a useful method for the deposition of thin films of lead zirconium titanate, PZT, because of its good step coverage and control of composition. Results are herein presented on a number of novel compounds which are potential MOCVD precursors. The compounds studied include Pb(tmhd)2, Zr(OBu')4 and Ti(OPr')4. Another commonly utilized precursor Zr(tmhd)4, is not ideal, in that it is a high melting point solid, and hence requires high substrate temperatures. We have sought to modify Zr precursors through chemical methods and have synthesized a number of novel, more volatile, and less intrinsically thermally stable MOCVD precursors. Full chemical characterization of the Zr precursors (NMR, IR, MS, CHN, TGA/DSC, Single Crystal X-ray diffraction) has been undertaken. We also present structural results on some related lead precursors.
