Abstract:Although it has long been known that metal-containing compounds can serve as catalysts for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of films from other precursors, we show that metal-containing compounds can also inhibit CVD nucleation or growth. For two precursors A and B with growth onset temperatures TgA < TgB when used independently, it is possible that B can inhibit growth from A when the two precursors are coflowed onto a substrate at a temperature (T) where TgA < T < TgB. Here, we consider t… Show more
