Abstract
Lanthanide oxide thin films are of increasing scientific and technological interest to the materials science community. A new class of fluorine-free, volatile, low-melting lanthanide precursors for the metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) of these films has been developed. Initial results from a full synthetic study of these lanthanide-organic complexes are detailed.
