Room temperature electrochemical methods to deposit thin films of chalcogenide glasses.

主权项

1. A method for fabricating a germanium glass or film comprising:
providing a solution comprising a room temperature ionic liquid, a germanium precursor, and a chalcogenide precursor, wherein the room temperature ionic liquid comprises PP13-TFSI, the germanium precursor comprises GeCl4, and the chalcogenide precursor comprises 1,4-butanedithiol; providing a substrate; and applying the solution onto the substrate by a deposition process.
