Talk Title: Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Films Fabricated Using Atomic and Molecular Layer Deposition
Series: Lyman L. Handy Colloquia
Abstract: Atomic layer deposition (ALD) and molecular layer deposition (MLD) are based on sequential, self-limiting surface reactions that produce atomic layer controlled and conformal thin film growth. ALD can deposit inorganic films and MLD can deposit organic films containing inorganics. ALD and MLD can also be used together to fabricate a wide range of alloy films with variable inorganic and organic composition. This talk will focus on the growth and properties of metal alkoxide films known as “metalcones” that are grown using metal precursors and various organic alcohols. The talk will highlight the tunable mechanical properties of alucone alloys grown using Al2O3 ALD and alucone MLD and the tunable electrical conductivity of zincone alloys grown using ZnO ALD and zincone MLD. In addition, the talk will discuss the pyrolysis of hybrid organic-inorganic films to produce conducting metal oxide/carbon composite films.
