Volatile Metals Coordination Compounds as Precursors for Functional Materials Synthesis by CVD-Method

The applications of such coordination compounds (chelates) as metal β-diketonates in different CVD techniques were examined. It was shown that high chemical and physical characteristics of these compounds allow their favourable use comparatively with other volatile compounds. The general miles in volatility and thermal stability of β-diketonates and their fluorine derivatives were discussed. The ways of preparation of various functional materials with specific properties were determined.
