摘要 |
This invention discloses the synthesis of metal chalcogenides using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process, atomic layer deposition (ALD) process, or wet solution process. Ligand exchange reactions of organosilyltellurium or organosilylselenium with a series of metal compounds having nucleophilic substituents generate metal chalcogenides. This chemistry is used to deposit germanium-antimony-tellurium (GeSbTe) and germanium-antimony-selenium (GeSbSe) films or other tellurium and selenium based metal compounds for phase change memory and photovoltaic devices. |
