Two-dimensional transition metal-based phosphides by atomic layer deposition

Provider: Grantová agentura ČR
Programme: Standardní projekty
Implementation period: 01.01.23 - 31.12.25
Workplace: Fakulta chemicko-technologická - CEMNAT
Investigator: Zazpe Raul
Description:
The project focuses on the identification and synthesis of phosphorous (P) compounds and their application as P-precursors for the synthesis of transition metal phosphides (TMPs) by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The strategy timeline comprises four work packages including identification, synthesis, purification and characterization of P derivatives, their utilization for synthesis of 2D TMPs by ALD, (including optimization of ALD process), their characterization and further assessment of their application potential. The key motivation is boosting the ALD synthesis of TMPs by enlarging the ALD portfolio of P derivatives as precursors and their use to synthesize several types of TMPs. The project is highly multidisciplinary on the forefront of organic, inorganic and materials chemistry and, therefore, also highly collaborative and will involve close collaboration of two working groups of the applicant, both possess unique know-how in the given area.
