Abstract
Pyrite, FeS2, thin films have been prepared by MOCVD using tert-butyldisulfide (TBDS), iron(III) acetylacetonate (Fe(acac)3), and H2 as the precursors. The reaction mechanism is studied by using in-situ mass spectrometry. The thermal decomposition of TBDS and Fe(acac)3 has been investigated, as well as the synthesis of FeS2. A complicated gas-phase reaction chain occurs in the deposition reaction. In the first 1-2 cm of the deposition zone, a thick, rough film is formed, but further downstream in the reactor, a smooth FeS2 film is obtained. This change in morphology is accounted for in the proposed reaction mechanism.
