Deposition of thin films TiO2 by atmospheric plasma post-discharge assisted injection MOCVD

TiO2 thin films have been deposited at low temperature using a new atmospheric pressure deposition process, which combines remote Atmospheric Pressure (AP) Plasma with Pulsed Injection Metallorganic Chemical Vapour Deposition (PIMOCVD). The effects of post-discharge plasma and deposition parameters have been studied with respect to the deposition kinetics, morphology, and microstructure of TiO2 films. It is shown that well-crystallised TiO2 anatase films can be obtained at a temperature of only 275 °C
