Precursors and methods for the atomic layer deposition of manganese

摘要

Methods and precursors are provided for deposition of elemental manganese films on surfaces using metal coordination complexes comprising an eta-3-bound monoanionic four-electron donor ligands selected from amidinate, mixed ene-amido and allyl, or eta-2 bound amidinate ligand. The ligands are selected from amidinate, ene-amido, and allyl.
