Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Combustion synthesis of dielectric yttrium oxide and aluminium oxide thin films is possible by introducing a molecular single-source precursor approach employing a newly designed nitro functionalized malonato complex of yttrium (Y-DEM-NO(2)1) as well as defined urea nitrate coordination compounds of yttrium (Y-UN 2) and aluminium (Al-UN 3). All new precursor compounds were extensively characterized by spectroscopic techniques (NMR/IR) as well as by single-crystal structure analysis for both urea nitrate coordination compounds. The thermal decomposition of the precursors 1-3 was studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry coupled with mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy (TG-MS/IR). As a result, a controlled thermal conversion of the precursors into dielectric thin films could be achieved. These oxidic thin films integrated within capacitor devices are exhibiting excellent dielectric behaviour in the temperature range between 250 and 350 degrees C, with areal capacity values up to 250 nF cm(-2), leakage current densities below 1.0 x 10(-9) A cm(-2) (at 1 MV cm(-1)) and breakdown voltages above 2 MV cm(-1). Thereby the increase in performance at higher temperatures can be attributed to the gradual conversion of the intermediate hydroxy species into the respective metal oxide which is confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Finally, a solution-processed YxOy based TFT was fabricated employing the precursor Y-DEM-NO(2)1. The device exhibits decent TFT characteristics with a saturation mobility (mu(sat)) of 2.1 cm(2) V-1 s(-1), a threshold voltage (V-th) of 6.9 V and an on/off current ratio (I-on/off) of 7.6 x 10(5).
