More Information
Summary:There is provided a method of producing inorganic thin films by metal inorganic chemical vapour deposition. The method comprises forming a vapour stream (10) comprising a vapour mixture of an organometallic compound and a heterocyclic organic compound incorporating a group V or group VI element, and thermally decomposing the mixture on a heated substrate (13) to form an inorganic layer. The heterocyclic compound may be an aliphatic or aromatic ring compound. The mixture may include vapours appropriate for deposition of ternary or higher order compounds, and/or for introducing dopants.
