We have succeeded in selective area deposition of aluminum films by ul
traviolet photolytic decomposition of the orqanometallic complex trime
thylamine alane, TMAA-AlH3(N(CH3)(3))(2). Both ultraviolet and visible
light successfully photolysed the alane adduct and resulted in select
ive area deposition. The light sources exhibited different laser fragm
entation mass spectra, suggesting somewhat different decomposition pat
hways.
