The Aerosol-Assisted CVD of Silver Films fromSingle-Source Precursors**
By Arunkumar Panneerselvam, Mohammad A. Malik, Paul O’Brien,* and Madeleine Helliwell
Thin films of silver are deposited from tetraphenyldioxoimidodiphosphinato silver(I) [Ag{(OPPh2)2N}]4 � 2H2O (1) and silver(I)triflouoroacetate CF3COOAg (2) single-source precursors (SSPs) by the aerosol-assisted (AA)CVDmethod. The complex (1)is a tetramer with linear and distorted tetrahedral coordination modes at silver. Two types of films, silvery and brownish, are
observed from both SSPs due to the temperature gradient in the AACVD reactor. The as-deposited films are characterized by
X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, and ultraviolet/visible
(UV-vis) spectroscopy methods.

1. Introduction
Silver thin films have many potential applications
including, as dopants in high-temperature superconducting
materials, bactericidal coatings (e.g., used in catheters),[1]
ultrafast optical switches, optical filters,[2] electrodes for
dielectric layers,[3] and surface-enhanced Raman sub-
strates.[4] Silver has the highest electrical conductivity at
room temperature, however its use in microelectronics is
often limited by its diffusion into semiconducting sub-
strates.[5] Thin films of silver have been deposited by many
non-vacuum techniques including electrodeposition,[6]
photochemical deposition,[7] electroless deposition,[8] and
sol-gel.[9] Physical vapor deposition techniques include
vacuum evaporation,[10] sputtering,[5,11,12] pulsed laser
deposition,[13] electron beam evaporation,[14] and molecular
beam epitaxy.[15] Among these various techniques, CVD has
the advantage of potentially superior step-coverage, and is a
single-step process which can easily be scaled up to deposit
high purity films over large areas. Compared to copper[16] or
gold,[17] there are relatively few reports on the CVD of
silver. The reported silver precursors for CVD are silver(I)
salts (AgF,[18] AgI,[19] CH3COOAg[20]), organometallic and
coordination compounds with fluorinated or non-fluori-
nated b-diketonates, carboxylates along with neutral donor

ligands such as olefins, alkyl isocyanides, and tertiary
phosphines (PMe3, PEt3, and PPh3) adducts. However,
these precursors have either poor volatility or low thermal
stability, or cause contamination (usually carbon, fluorine,
or phosphorus) in the as-deposited silver films thereby
limiting their suitability for conventional CVD pro-
cesses.[1,2,21,22] In an attempt to overcome these difficulties,
the synthesis and evaluation of new classes of silver
precursors are under investigation.[23]
Recent developments of alternative precursor delivery
systems, like powder flash evaporation,[24] the powder feed
method,[19] AACVD,[25] and direct liquid injection CVD,[26]
circumvent the need for thermally stable and/or volatile
precursors. Molloy and co-workers deposited silver films by
AACVD using silver carboxylates, fluorocarboxylates,
b-diketonates, b-diketoiminates, and aryloxides as phosphine
adducts to give useful precursors which were, however,
considered unsuitable for conventional CVD.[27]
Recently, we have reported the synthesis of a single-
source precursor [Ag{(SPiPr2)2N}]3. AACVD from the
complex yielded a mixture of silver sulfide and silver thin
films, or pure silver films, depending upon the deposition
temperature.[28] In the present work, AACVD was used to
grow silver films from (1) and the readily available (2). The
SSP (1) was synthesized from the tetraphenyldioxoimido-
diphosphinate [Ph2P(O)NHP(O)Ph2] (TPOIP) ligand, an
inorganic analogue of the b-diketonate. To the best of our
knowledge, dioxoimidodiphosphinato silver complexes have
not previously been evaluated for the deposition of silver.
The silver trifluoroacetate (2) precursor was used in the
deposition of silver films by powder-feed,[19] and laser
assisted CVD.[29] As both precursors are soluble in common
organic solvents, AACVD is a suitable technique.[25] Herein
we report the deposition of silver thin films from (1) and (2)
by the AACVD method.

2. Results and Discussion
The TPOIP ligand was prepared using a modification of
the method of Wang et al.[30] Deprotonation of the ligand
upon treatment with sodiummethoxide, and in-situ reaction
with silver trifluoroacetate in methanol, gave an off-white
powder (1).
The method described in the literature[31] for the
preparation of (1) used silver nitrate rather than silver
trifluoroacetate. The product we obtained from the reaction
of silver nitrate with sodium dioxoimidodiphosphinate salt
was a brown insoluble powder. Our repeated attempts to
prepare the required complex resulted in the same brown
insoluble powder, obviously not the required product.
However, when we used silver trifluoroacetate, the silver
complex (1) was readily formed. The compound is air,
moisture, and light stable. It can be stored over a period of
months without any decomposition.

2.1. X-ray Single Crystal Structure of[Ag{(OPPh2)2N}]4 � 2H2O
The molecular structure of [Ag{(OPPh2)2N}]4 � 2H2O is
shown in Figure 1. The asymmetric unit contains half of a
molecule and one water molecule. The water may have
come from the wet THF used to recrystallize the crude

product. Selected bond lengths and bond angles are listed in
Table 1 and the crystallographic data are listed in Table 2.
This structure is similar to the reported [Ag{(OPPh2)2N}]4 �2EtOH[31] and [Ag4(m-Ph2PNHPPh2)2 (m-OPh2PNPPh2O)2] �(PF6)2 �CH3COCH3.
[32] The molecule is built up of four
Ag(TPOIP) units which are arranged as pairs, and has a centre
of symmetry. The two Agþ cations [Ag(1) and Ag(1A)] adopt
the preferred linear coordination with two TPOIP ligands
giving Ag(TPOIP)2�, with N(1)-Ag(1)-N(2) 172.2(5)8, and
leaving three pendent PNO groups. The absence of interaction
from the water molecule present in the unit cell is reflected
mainly in the P-O bond distance, 1.52 A, and also in the N-P-O
bond angles (117.48) which are larger than the bond distances
(�1.49 A) and bond angles (�116.88) reported for the
structures containing solvent molecules.[31,32]
The two Agþ cations [Ag(2) and Ag(2A)] share six PNO
moieties and thus hold two Ag(TPOIP)2 moieties together.

Moreover, these two units are coupled by a pair of Ag���Ag
contacts (3.121 A), which is shorter than the sum of van der
Waals radii (3.4 A) for silver, suggesting the presence of a
weak Ag-Ag bonding interaction. In addition, the Ag-Ag
bond distance is shorter than the reported structure with
solvent units (3.24 A), but the Ag-Ag bond distance is still
longer than (2.816 A) found in the di-silver complex [Ag2(m-
Ph2PNHPPh2)(m-Ph2PNPPh2)2].[33] The coordination of the
two silver atoms to the six suitably oriented PNO groups
occurs in such a way as to lead a planar central Ag2O2 ring
{O(4)-Ag(2)-O(4A), 91.3(3)8}. The two oxygen atoms are
asymmetrically bonded to the Ag atoms {Ag(2)-O(4),
2.33(1) and Ag(2)-O(4A), 2.52(1) A}. The coordination
around silver is thus distorted tetrahedral with the oxygen
atoms of the PNO groups as neighboring atoms. The
shortest bond distance between silver and a terminal oxygen
atom is 2.245 A {Ag(2)-O(2)}. A salient feature in this

structure is that the Ag atoms adopt both linear and
tetrahedral geometries.
2.2. Thermogravimetric Analysis
Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) for precursor (1)
shows a sharp single decomposition step between 344 and
384 8C. The observed residue (35%) is higher than the
calculated residue (21%) for silver. XRD analysis of
the TGA residue showed impurity peaks which appear to
be due to decomposed ligand. Precursor (2) decomposed by
a single step between 313 and 354 8C. The residue (46%) is in
fair agreement with the calculated residue (49%) for silver.

(f) 375 8C, silvery film.
2.3. Silver Films from (1)
Deposition was carried out at temperatures between 375
and 475 8C, with an argon flow rate of 160 sccm. While no
deposition occurred below 375 8C, brownish matt films were
deposited at 375 8C. As-prepared films at 425 and 475 8Cwere of two colors; silvery film on the substrate closer to the
precursor inlet, and brownish reflective films on the adjacent
substrate towards the centre of the reactor. This difference is
most probably caused by a temperature gradient in the
reactor, or possibly by precursor decomposition as it moves
through the reactor.
XRD analysis (Figs. 2a–e) of brownish matt films
deposited at 375 8C, silvery and brownish films deposited
at 425 and 475 8C correspond to cubic silver (JCPDS 04-
0783). The as-obtained silvery and brownish films at all
deposition temperatures (375–475 8C) have preferred
orientation along the (111) plane. The crystallinity of the
deposited films increases at higher deposition temperatures.
The thickness of the brownish films was in the range 0.3–
0.6mm, whereas the silvery films varied between 1.2 and
1.5mm.
SEM of the as-deposited brownish matt films at 375 8Cconsists of spherical particles (Fig. 3a) composed of only
silver, as shown by EDX. Silvery films deposited at 425 8Cwere composed of fused silver particles of irregular shapes
(Fig. 3b), whereas spherical particles were the major
component in the brownish reflective film (Fig. 3c). The
morphology of the silvery film deposited at 475 8C appears to
be a mixture of rods grown vertically and cubic particles
(Fig. 3d). The size of the rods and particles were in the range
0.2–0.3mm. Similar features were observed in the brownish
film deposited at the same temperature, but the sizes of the
rods and particles were in the range 0.05–0.1mm (Fig. 3e).
EDX analysis of the silvery films deposited at 425 and 475 8Cshows the presence of silver alone, whereas the brownish
films deposited at these temperatures were composed of
97% silver with 3% phosphorus.
The UV-vis spectra (Fig. 4a) of the silvery films deposited
at 425 8C shows a surface plasmon resonance (SPR)[34] peak
at ca. 456 nm. The absorption maximum is red shifted to

475 nm for the silvery films grown at
475 8C (Fig. 4b) which can be attrib-
uted to the increase in the particle size.
The as-deposited brownish matt film
at 375 8C exhibits absorption maxima
at ca. 420 nm (Fig. 4c). The absorption
peak of the brownish reflective (mirror-
like) films deposited at 425 and 475 8Cundergoes blue shift to ca. 406 nm
(Figs. 4d, e) which is due to the
microstructure of the film.

2.4. Silver Films from (2)
Deposition was carried out at tem-
peratures from 300 to 425 8C with an
argon flow rate of 140 sccm. XRD
patterns of the films deposited at 300–
375 8C, correspond to cubic silver
(JCPDS 04-0783) with a preferred
orientation along the (111) direction
(Figs. 5a–f). At 300 8C, brownish matt
films were deposited along with
brownish reflective films. Two types
of films were deposited at 325 and
375 8C; silvery films on the substrates
placed at the front region of the
reactor, and brownish reflective films
on the substrates placed in the middle
part of the reactor. As expected, the
size of the crystallites increased at
higher deposition temperatures.
The microstructure of the as-depos-
ited films exhibits obvious differences
depending on the growth tempera-
tures. Cubic silver crystallites were
observed on the brownish matt films
deposited at 300 8C (Fig. 6a), but the
mirror-like films deposited at the same
temperature were observed as dots
(Fig. 6b) on the surface of the
substrate. Silvery films deposited at
325 and 375 8C showed well-defined
blocky crystallites (Figs. 6c, e). The
brownish specular films were com-
posed of dots at 325 8C (Fig. 6d)
and spherical crystallites at 375 8C
(Fig. 6f). According to EDX measurements, the silveryand brownish films deposited at the above-mentioned
temperatures (300–375 8C) showed the presence of silver
alone. Films deposited at 425 8C also show silvery and
brownish reflective (specular) films. XRD of both the films
matched with cubic silver with preferred orientation along
the (111) plane, but the brownish reflective films showed
additional peaks corresponding to silver fluoride (JCPDS
Chem. Vap. Deposition 2009, 15, 57–63 � 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag Gm
47-1355). The morphology of the silvery film deposited at
425 8C was observed as fused crystallites (Fig. 6g) and the
brownish specular films were composed of small particles
(Fig. 6h). EDX analysis showed the presence of fluorine
(6%) for the brownish films whereas the silvery films showed
no contamination. The film thickness varied from 2 to 3mm
for the silvery, and 0.7 to 0.9mm for the brownish films at all
deposition temperatures.

(f) 375 8C.
The UV-vis absorption spectra of the as-deposited
brownish matt film at 300 8C showed broad peak at
420 nm (Fig. 7a). The absorption of the as-deposited silvery
films at 325 and 375 8C was red shifted towards 433 and
464 nm, respectively (Figs. 7b, c). The brownish reflective
films deposited at 300 8C exhibited a SPR peak at 410 nm
(Fig. 7d) whereas as-grown films at 325 and 375 8C were red
shifted to 425 and 451 nm, respectively (Figs. 7e, f). The peak
broadness is due to dipole-dipole interactions of the Ag
particles.[34]

3. Conclusions
Silver films were deposited from (1) and (2)
by AACVD. Both precursors gave two types of
films, silvery and brownish, depending upon the
deposition temperatures and the position of the
glass substrates in the reactor. The morphology
of the silver films obtained from the imido-
precursor (1) varied from spherical particles
(375, 425 8C) to rods (475 8C) for both the silveryand brownish films. Phosphorus contamination
was observed on the brownish films (425,
475 8C) whereas the silvery films were devoid
of contamination. Silver trifluoroacetate (2)-
deposited silver films at temperatures from as
low as 300 8C up to 425 8C. The microstructure
62 www.cvd-journal.de � 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH
of the silvery films exhibited cubic (300 8C), blocky (325,
375 8C), and fused crystallites (425 8C). The brownish films
were composed of dots (300, 325, 425 8C) and spherical
particles (375 8C). The brownish films deposited at 425 8Cshowed traces of silver fluoride whereas all other films were
composed of only silver.
4. Experimental
All reactions were performed under an inert atmosphere of dry nitrogen
using standard Schlenk techniques. All reagents were purchased from theSigma-Aldrich chemical company and used as received. Solvents weredistilled prior to use. 1H and 31P NMR studies were carried out using a BrukerAC300 FTNMR instrument. Microanalysis was performed at the Universityof Manchester microanalytical laboratory. Infrared spectra were recorded ona Perkin Elmer Spectrum BX FTIR spectrometer. The ligand [Ph2P(O)NH-P(O)Ph2] was prepared by the reported method [30]. TGA measurementswere carried out using a Seiko SSC/S200 model at a heating rate of10 8Cmin�1 under nitrogen.Melting points were recorded on a Stuart meltingpoint apparatus and are uncorrected.
[Ag{(OPPh2)2N}]4: Sodiummethoxide (0.18 g, 3.4 mmol) was added to a
stirred solution of [Ph2P(O)NHP(O)Ph2] (1.5 g, 3.4 mmol) in anhydrousmethanol (50mL). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for15min. Silver trifluoroacetate (0.74 g, 3.4 mmol) dissolved in methanol wasadded, and the reaction stirred at room temperature for 30min. It was thenfiltered and dried under vacuum. Recrystallization from THF at roomtemperature yielded off-white crystals.

X-Ray Crystallography: Single-crystal XRD data for the compound wascollected using graphite monochromatedMoKa radiation (l¼ 0.71073 A) ona Bruker APEX diffractometer. The structure was solved by direct methodsand refined by full-matrix least squares on F2 [35]. All non-H atoms wererefined anisotropically. H atoms were included in calculated positions,assigned isotropic thermal parameters, and allowed to ride on their parentcarbon atoms. All calculations were carried out using the SHELXTL package[36].CCDC number 692341 contains the supplementary crystallographic data
for this paper. These data can be obtained free of charge fromThe CambridgeCrystallographic Data Centre via www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/data_request/cif.
Deposition of Films by AACVD: In a typical deposition, ca. 0.20 g of theprecursor was dissolved in 20mL toluene in a two-necked 100mL round-bottom flask. Argon was used as a carrier gas with a flow rate of 140 or160 sccm, and the deposition was carried out for 120min. The flow rate wascontrolled by a Platon flow gauge. Seven glass substrates (approx.1 cmT 3 cm) were placed inside the reactor tube. The precursor solutionwas kept in a water bath above the piezoelectric modulator of a PIFCO

ultrasonic humidifier (Model No. 1077) where aerosol droplets weregenerated and transferred into the hot-wall deposition zone by carrier gas(Fig. 8). Both solvent and precursor were evaporated and the precursor vaporreached the substrate surface where thermally induced reactions and filmdeposition took place [37].
Characterization of Thin films: XRD studies were performed on a BrukerAXS D8 diffractometer using a monochromated Cu Ka radiation. Thesamples were mounted flat and scanned between 20 and 80- in a step size of0.05-with a count rate of 9 s. Films were carbon coated using Edward’s E306Acoating system before carrying out SEM and EDX analyses. SEM analysiswas performed using a Philips XL 30FEG and EDX was carried out using aDX4 instrument. The thickness of the films was measured with a Dektak 8Stylus surface profilometer. UV-vis spectra were measured using a Helios-Beta Thermospectronic spectrophotometer.
