Abstract
The use of titanocene-dichloride (Cp2TiCl2) as a metalorganic precursor for TiC coating provides layers of very different quality according to its temperature of vaporization in a cold wall CVD reactor. The deposits observed by SEM and characterized by EPMA are related to the experimental procedure. The thermal behavior of the precursor investigated by thermogravimetry (TG), thermogravimetry coupled with differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) and mass spectroscopy (MS) is used to determine the structural state of Cp2TiCl2 active from a CVD point of view.
