Conventional atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a thermo-chemical process where co-reagents are sequentially pulsed in cycles onto a heated substrate. As an alternative to substrate heating, various forms of other “non-thermal” ALD processes are being investigated. Herein, the photochemical atomic layer deposition of Al2O3 and TiO2 thin films at 60 C is reported using a shuttered vacuum ultraviolet light source to excite molecular oxygen as a coreagent with the metal precursors. The growth mechanisms using trimethyl aluminium and titanium tetraisopropoxide precursors, are investigated using in-situ quartz crystal microbalance and postdeposition ellipsometric measurements. The photochemical ALD Al2O3 films exhibit different capacitance equivalent thicknesses for irradiated and masked regions respectively, even after postdeposition annealing. The photochemical ALD titania films are amorphous and when incorporated into Pt/TiO2/Pt metalinsulator-metal structures, the titania exhibits a resistive switching behavior.
