Patent ID: 8541318

Claim:
A method of forming a silicon-containing film on a substrate, comprising contacting a substrate under vapor deposition conditions with a vapor of a compound selected from the group consisting of: (i) compounds of the formula: wherein R 1 and R 2 may be the same as or different from each another and are independently selected from the group consisting of H, C 1 -C 7 alkyl, aryl, and C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl, or R 1 and R 2 together may form C 3 -C 6 heterocyclic functional group with N, and wherein X, Y, and Z may be the same as or different from one another and are independently selected from the group consisting of C 1 -C 7 alkyl, alkylamino, and dialkylamino; and (ii) compounds of the formula: wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , and R 4 may be the same as or different from one another and are independently selected from the group consisting of H, C 1 -C 7 alkyl, aryl, and C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl, or R 1 and R 2 together may form a C 3 -C 6 heterocyclic functional group with N, or R 3 and R 4 together may form a C 3 -C 6 heterocyclic functional group with N, and wherein X 1 , X 2 , Y 1 , and Y 2 may be the same as or different from one another and are independently selected from the group consisting of H, C 1 -C 7 alkyl, alkylamino, dialkylamino, and R 1 R 2 NNH—, wherein R 1 and R 2 are as described above, and wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , X 1 , X 2 , Y 1 , and Y 2 are not all methyl.
