Polycrystalline (alpha-Ga2S3 films have been prepared from tris(N,N-methylh
exyldithiocarbamato)gallium(III), Ga(S(2)CNMeHex)(3), by LP-MOCVD. The film
s were grown from 475 to 500 degrees C on GaAs(111) single-crystal substrat
es and characterized by XPS, EDAX, SEM, and XRD. XPS analysis shows only ga
llium and sulfur peaks are present. These studies demonstrate that dithioca
rbamate compounds are attractive single-source precursors for the depositio
n of metal sulfide thin films.
