| Abstract | CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) thin films have been successfully deposited by Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) technique. A novel approach based on a molten multicomponent precursor source has been applied. The molten mixture consists of the Ca(hfa)2•tetraglyme, Ti(tmhd)2(O-iPr)2, and Cu(tmhd)2 [Hhfa= 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoro-2,4- pentanedione; tetraglyme= 2,5,8,11,14-pentaoxapentadecane; Htmhd= 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5- heptandione; O-iPr= iso-propoxide] precursors. Film complete structural and morphological characterizations have been carried out using several techniques [X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM)]. |
