Atomic Layer Deposition of Osmium
2011
Growth of osmium thin films and nanoparticles by atomic layer deposition is described. The Os thin films were successfully grown between 325 and 375 °C using osmocene and molecular oxygen as precursors. The films consisted of only Os metal as osmium oxides were not detected in X-ray diffraction measurements. Also the impurity contents of oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen were less than 1 at % each at all deposition temperatures. The long nucleation delay of the Os process facilitates either Os nanoparticle or thin film deposition. However, after the nucleation delay of about 350 cycles the film growth proceeded linearly with increasing number of deposition cycles. Also conformal growth of Os thi…
The Preparation of Tetramethyl 1,1′,3,3′-Ruthenocenetetracarboxylate and Tetramethyl 1,1′,3,3′-Osmocenetetracarboxylate, and a Simplified Synthesis …

Substituted metallocenes with more than two substituents have to be synthesized using doubly substituted cyclopentadiene rings in a reaction with a metal compound or by the introduction of additional functional groups to an already di-substituted metallocene. The direct formation of tetra-substituted metallocenes often suffers due to insufficient reactivity of the reagents or the resulting product mixtures, which are hard to separate. In this work, a protocol, which was successful in a tetra-substitution of ferrocene by a tetra-metalation followed by a reaction with carbon dioxide, is used to perform the tetra-substitution of ruthenocene and osmocene. In addition, a simplified protocol for …
