Abstract

Abstract An organometallic zirconium precursor, represented by following formula:LxxZr(THD)4 [I]wherein L is an electron donor ligand selected from the group consisting of NR3 (R=H, CH3) gas and Cl2 gas; THD denotes 2,2',6,6'-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione; and x is in the range of 0.3 to 1.5 with the proviso that L is NR3 or in the range of 0.5 to 2 with the proviso that L is Cl2, is prepared by flowing a gas phase electron donor into a bubbler containing bis (2,2',6,6'-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione)Zr at a predetermined temperature, to synthesize, in-situ, an adduct. The precursor exhibits a remarkable improvement in volatility, and in stability at the vaporization point. Lead-zirconium-titanium thin films prepared from the precursor, display superior reproducibility and reliability.
