Abstract

New strontium (host lattice constituent) and cerium (doping element) precursor sources have been developed and evaluated for deposition of blue color emitting SrS:Ce thin films by ALE (Atomic Layer Epitaxy). In the case of strontium, the monomeric derivative [Sr(hfac)2]*triglyme has been synthesized and structurally characterized, whereas, for cerium, the utilization of its homoleptic tris amide derivative Ce{N[Si(CH3)3]2}3 has led to a blue color emitting SrS:Ce. In a further effort, emission characteristics of SrS:Ce doped with the β-diketonate-related Ce(tmhd)4 derivative have been weighed against data obtained employing the cerium tris amide composition.
