The vapor pressures and vapor molecular weights of the copper and yttrium β-diketonate MOCVD
precursors Cu(C11H19O2)2 (c) and Y(C11H19O2)3 (c) were measured by a torsion-effusion/mass-loss method
in the ranges (346 to 375) K and (361 to 387) K, respectively. The molecular weight data indicate that
the saturated vapors of both precursors are highly monomeric. Vapor pressures, estimated to be accurate
within 5%, are presented in equation form for reliable extrapolation to higher temperatures. The results
are compared with other determinations in the literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
