New Lanthanide Precursors for Doping Semiconductor Films

Abstract

The goal of this proposal was to synthesize new lanthanide and other source compounds for use in chemical vapor deposition and related processes using molecular precursors and to evaluate these compounds in materials growth processes. Specific objectives included the synthesis and characterization of lanthanide complexes that can be used to dope nitride and sulfide materials, materials growth using these precursors, and the synthesis and characterization of volatile, multimetallic first row transition metal complexes that can be used for as dopant precursors for magnetic semiconductor materials such as GaN:Mn or GaN:Cr. In addition, several new classes of potential film growth precursors for the group 2 elements magnesium, calcium, strontium, and barium were developed.
