Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a chemical deposition raw material for manufacturing an iridium thin film or an iridium compound thin film by a chemical deposition method, including an iridium complex in which cyclopropenyl or a derivative thereof and a carbonyl ligand are coordinated to iridium. The iridium complex that is applied in the present invention enables an iridium thin film to be manufactured even when a reducing gas such as hydrogen is applied.in which R1 to R3, which are substituents of the cyclopropenyl ligand, are each independently hydrogen, or a linear or branched alkyl group with a carbon number of 1 or more and 4 or less.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A chemical deposition method of an iridium thin film or an iridium compound thin film, comprising: preparing a raw material gas by vaporizing a raw material including an iridium complex; introducing the raw material gas to a surface of a substrate; and simultaneously heating the raw material gas to decompose the iridium complex, wherein the raw material used is an iridium complex in which a cyclopropenyl ligand and a carbonyl ligand are coordinated to iridium, the iridium complex being represented by a following formula: and, wherein R 1 to R 3 , which are substituents of the cyclopropenyl ligand, are each independently hydrogen, or a linear or branched alkyl group with a carbon number of 1 or more and 4 or less. 2. The chemical deposition method according to claim 1 , wherein a reducing gas is used as a reaction gas. 3. A chemical deposition method of an iridium thin film or an iridium compound thin film, comprising: preparing a raw material gas by vaporizing a raw material including an iridium complex; introducing the raw material gas to a surface of a substrate; and simultaneously heating the raw material gas to decompose the iridium complex, wherein the chemical deposition raw material defined in claim 1 in the raw material. 4. The chemical deposition method according to claim 1 , wherein the raw material is heated at 40° C. or higher and 120° C. or lower to be vaporized to obtain a raw material gas. 5. The chemical deposition method according to claim 4 , wherein the iridium complex is heated at a deposition temperature of 160° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower to be decomposed to obtain a raw material gas. 6. The chemical deposition method according to claim 1 , wherein the iridium complex is heated at a deposition temperature of 160° C. or higher and 400° C. or lower to be decomposed to obtain a raw material gas. 7. The chemical deposition raw material according to claim 1 , wherein each of R 1 and R 2 is a t-butyl group, and R 3 is one of a methyl group, an ethyl group, an isopropyl group and a t-butyl group.
