Chemical Vapor Deposition
Gelest offers a large number of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) precursors for a wide variety of thin film materials. CVD is a technique in which a chemical is reacted in the gas phase to deposit a film on a substrate. Metal-organic precursors that are volatile and reactive in the gas phase are employed for CVD. A wide variety of co-reactants and reaction conditions can be used to deposit mainly metal, metal oxides or metal nitrides.
