摘要: A plasma-assisted atomic layer deposition (ALD) process has been developed that allows for low temperature (100 °C) synthesis of virtually 100% pure palladium thin films with resistivity 24 ± 3 μΩ cm on oxide substrates. This is based Pd(hfac)2 (hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate) precursor dosing followed by sequential H2 plasma and O2 steps in a so-called ABC-type ALD process. Gas-phase infrared spectroscopy studies revealed the pulse required to remove carbon contaminants from Pd surface remain after reduction step. Omitting step, is, typical AB-like process, leads contamination >10% significantly higher values. From transmission electron microscopy, it also observed faster nucleation nanoparticles formed during initial stage film growth. As this novel depositio...
