Abstract

Thin films of rhodium have been prepared starting from dicarbonyl-2.4-pentadionato-rhodium(I), Rh(CO)2C5H7O2, by plasma enhanced CVD. The dependence of the deposition rate and film properties on substrate temperature, partial pressure of the organometallic and on hydrogen has been studied. Metal contents of ≈ 100% and thin-film resistivities as low as 5 times the bulk resistivity of rhodium have been achieved.
