Mixed Organotin(IV) Chalcogenides: From Molecules to Sn-S-Se Semiconducting Thin Films Deposited by Spin-Coating

Put the right spin on it: Mixed monomeric organotin(IV) chalcogenides of the general formula L2Sn2EX2 containing two terminal Sn–X (X=Se, Te) bonds were prepared and were tested as potential single‐source precursors for the deposition of semiconducting thin films. Spin‐coating deposition of [{2,6‐(Me2NCH2)2C6H3}SnSe]2(μ‐S), as the useful single‐source precursor, provided amorphous Sn‐S‐Se semiconducting thin films.
