Insulating epitaxially grown SrTiO3 thin films were prepared on (100)MgO substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Semiconductive SrTiO3 thin films were obtained by the rapid cooling after reheating in reduction atmosphere. The microstructure, crystal structure, and electrical properties of these films were investigated. The electrical properties varied by the composition of films and heat-treatment conditions, i.e., the heating temperature, the oxygen partial pressure, and the cooling rate after the annealing. Change of the resistivity of the film was attributed to that of the carrier concentration. Mobility of films was unchanged, and the value was almost the same order of that of bulks. The lowest resistivity of 0.1 Ω·cm was obtained when a sample of Ti/Sr = 1.0 was heated at 1200 °C under 10−15 Pa of PO2 and then rapidly cooled. This value is similar to that of bulks (100 –10−1 Ω · cm).

Synthesis of zirconium tetramethylheptanedione [Zr(thd)4] was optimized. Purity of Zr(thd)4 was confirmed by melting point determination, carbon, and hydrogen elemental analysis and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer (NMR). By using Zr(thd)4, excellent quality ZrO2 thin films were successfully deposited on single-crystal silicon wafers by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) at reduced pressures. For substrate temperatures below 530 °C, the film deposition rates were very small (⋚1 nm/min). The film deposition rates were significantly affected by (i) source temperature, (ii) substrate temperature, and (iii) total pressure. As-deposited films are carbon free. Furthermore, only the tetragonal ZrO2 phase was identified in as-deposited films. The tetragonal phase transformed progressively into the monoclinic phase as the films were subjected to a high-temperature post-deposition annealing. The optical properties of the ZrO2 thin films as a function of wavelength, in the range of 200 nm to 2000 nm, were also reported. In addition, a simplified theoretical model which considers only a surface reaction was used to analyze the deposition of ZrO2 films. The model predicated the deposition rates well for various conditions in the hot wall reactor.
