Book excerpt: Modern society demands smaller, more precise devices for both microelectronic and energy technologies. The development of methods and processes that can deposit reliably uniform, conformal thin films on the nanoscale is essential to fields as diverse as catalysts and solar cells. Therefore, atomic layer deposition (ALD), a thin-film deposition technique that accomplishes these goals by using self-limiting sequential reactions between alternating precursors to achieve atomic precision over the product film, is an important tool for the modern era. Combining ALD with molecular layer deposition (MLD), which follows the same principles as ALD but deposits entire organic molecules to build films, results in a powerful system that enables the deposition of inorganic, organic, and hybrid inorganic-organic materials. Understanding the nucleation mechanisms, surface reaction chemistry, and applications of these materials and ALD/MLD processes is essential to commercialization and wider use. Through in situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, we studied the zinc-tin-oxide (ZTO) system, a ternary ALD process that is a combination of the zinc oxide and tin oxide binary ALD processes. Previous research had indicated that the ternary system is characterized by non-idealities in the ALD growth, and we identify as a potential cause of these effects incomplete removal of the ligands from the tetrakis(dimethylamino)tin precursor, which leads to a nucleation delay when depositing ZnO on SnO2. A significant fraction of the ligands remain on the surface during the ALD of SnO2 and endure when the process is switched to ZnO ALD. This result suggests that the occupation of surface reactive sites by these persisting ligands may be the cause of the observed nucleation delay with potential ramifications for many other binary and ternary systems where persisting ligands may be present. In addition, we studied the mechanism of ALD-grown MoS2 thin films. It was observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM), grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS), and X-ray reflectivity (XRR) that nucleation proceeds by the formation of small islands that coalesce into a complete film in under 100 cycles, with further film growth failing to occur after coalescence. This inertness is attributed to the chemical inactivity of the basal planes of MoS2. It was found that the final thickness of the as-grown film is not determined by the number of ALD cycles as per the normal regime, but by the temperature that the film is deposited at. This self-limiting layer synthesis (SLS) has been reported in the literature for higher temperature depositions of MoS2, but this is the first report of the effect in a low temperature, amorphous MoS2 ALD system. The thickness of films growth by ALD with the precursors Mo(CO)6 and H2S was found to saturate at around 7 nm on both native oxide-covered silicon and bulk crystalline MoS2 substrates, which may indicate that the SLS behavior is inherent to the ALD process and not substantially a product of the substrate surface potential. Finally, we demonstrated a new ALD/MLD hybrid process that used the MoS2 ALD precursor Mo(CO)6 and the counter reagent 1,2-ethanedithiol to create a MoS2-like material with organic domains. This Mo-thiolate possesses many properties that link it to MoS2, such as activity towards the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and similar Raman modes, but has a significantly lower density, optical transparency, and higher geometric surface area. It was found that the process has a 1.3 Å growth per cycle and can catalyze the HER reaction at an overpotential of 294 mV at -10 mA/cm2 , which is superior to planar MoS2 and ranks the as-deposited catalyst with the best nanostructured MoS2-based catalysts. We propose that this activity comes from the higher surface area induced by the incorporation of organic chains into the films. In summary, we explored the mechanisms and nucleation behavior of several ALD systems of interest to energy applications using both in situ and ex situ analysis techniques. These studies demonstrated the importance of understanding ALD surface chemistry to the overall chemical composition of the resultant films, the ramifications of different nucleation regimes in determining morphologies, and the power of ALD/MLD in creating analogues to previously known species with improved physical properties.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atomic layer deposition, formerly called atomic layer epitaxy, was developed in the 1970s to meet the needs of producing high-quality, large-area fl at displays with perfect structure and process controllability. Nowadays, creating nanomaterials and producing nanostructures with structural perfection is an important goal for many applications in nanotechnology. As ALD is one of the important techniques which offers good control over the surface structures created, it is more and more in the focus of scientists. The book is structured in such a way to fi t both the need of the expert reader (due to the systematic presentation of the results at the forefront of the technique and their applications) and the ones of students and newcomers to the fi eld (through the first part detailing the basic aspects of the technique). This book is a must-have for all Materials Scientists, Surface Chemists, Physicists, and Scientists in the Semiconductor Industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced technologies derive many of their capabilities from the advanced materials that they are made from. Complex oxides are a class of materials which are driving technological advancement in a host of di erent directions. These highly functional materials have a great variety of useful properties, which can be chosen and even engineered. Advanced materials require advanced deposition methods. Atomic layer deposition (ALD), a variant of chemical vapor deposition (CVD), is gaining more use in industry for its ability to provide ultra-high lm thickness resolution (down to 0.1 nm), capability to conformally coat three-dimensional structures, and its high uniformity across large surface areas. Additionally, ALD processes provide a possibility to improve economic and environmental viability of the process as compared to CVD by using and wasting less toxic reactants and expelling fewer nano-particulate byproducts. ALD processes are highly mature for many binary oxides commonly used in the semiconductor industries, however processes for depositing heavy metal oxides and complex oxides - oxides containing two or more separate metallic cations - are sorely lacking in literature. The primary focus of this work is the development of a process for depositing the complex perovskite oxide lead titanate (PbTiO3), an end group of the lead zirconate titanate family (PbZrxTi1-xO3), which has valuable technical applications as well as serves as a template for applying this research into other material systems.
