METHOD FOR DEPOSITING LAYERS FROM IONIC LIQUIDS

摘要

The invention relates to a method for depositing, in particular, also for electrochemically depositing layers comprised of a multitude of metallic or semiconducting elements and/or combinations thereof onto substrates. The deposition ensues from a nonaqueous solution with an organic ionic liquid (IL), which has a cation and an anion and which is a constituent of the carrier liquid. According to the invention, the cation is a redox-inert component and the anion is a component having a reducing action. According to the method, dense layers, while being free of unwanted components, can be produced in a continuous process at low temperatures, preferably between room temperature and 140 °C.
