International audience; This study is concerned with the elaboration of barium silicate thin films by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and in situ characterization by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) with an apparatus connected to the deposition reactor. The difficulty to find an efficient metal organic precursor for barium is described. After characterizations of the selected reactant, Ba(TMHD)2tetraglyme, the development of an original specific vapor delivering source which allows reactant sublimation in the CVD reactor was performed. In the most optimized cases, including use of oxygen introduction during the deposition, barium silicate films were obtained. Moreover, non-negligible amounts of carbon and presence of barium oxide on the top of the layers were observed.
