The bis-chelates [M{R2P(X)NC(Y)NR′-η2-X,Y}2] were evaluated as suitable SSPs for the synthesis of metal chalcogenide thin films by AA-CVD.

Structural, morphological and optical studies of zinc and cadmium sulfide thin films with different contents of phosphorus.

Sandwich structures were fabricated by a vacuum deposition method using MPc (M = Cu, Zn), with a Tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivative, and Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) and aluminum electrodes. The structure and morphology of the deposited films were studied by IR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The absorption spectra of TTF derivative-MPc (M = Cu, Zn) thin films deposited at room temperature were recorded in the spectral range 200-1000 nm. The optical band gap of the thin films was determined from the (αhν) 1/2 vs. hν plot. The direct-current (DC) electrical properties of the glass/ITO/TTF deriv -MPc (M = Cu, Zn)/Al structures were also investigated. Changes in conductivity of the derivative-TTF-enriched Pc compounds suggest the formation of alternative paths for carrier conduction. At low voltages, forward current density obeys an ohmic I-V relationship; at higher voltages, conduction is mostly due to a space-charge-limited conduction (SCLC) mechanism.
