Volatile and thermostable complexs of lanthanide acetylacetonates and
pivalates were obtained and investigated by different methods. These c
ompounds were used for lanthanide oxide containing film producing and
for fabrication of silica optical fibers doped by lanthanide oxide. Th
e properties of these and already known volatile precursors are compar
ed.
