Abstract

A uniform, conformal, pure copper metal thin film was grown at very low substrate temperatures (100-120 °C) on Si(100) substrates by atomic layer deposition involving the ligand exchange of [Cu(OCHMeCH2NMe 2)2] with Et2Zn (see scheme). Patterned copper thin films of Cu nanotubes (diameter 150 nm, length 12 μm) were fabricated.
