Abstract
The current disclosure relates to the manufacture of semiconductor devices. Specifically, the disclosure relates to a method of forming a transition metal-comprising material on a substrate by a cyclic deposition process. The method comprises providing a substrate in a reaction chamber, providing a transition metal precursor comprising a transition metal compound in the reaction chamber, and providing a second precursor in the reaction chamber, wherein the transition metal compound comprises a transition metal halide bound to an adduct ligand, and the second precursor comprises a chalcogen or a pnictogen. The disclosure further relates to a method of forming a transition metal layer, and to semiconductor devices. Further, a vapor deposition assembly is disclosed.
