Abstract

A method and system for forming a copper iodide layer on a surface of a substrate are disclosed. Exemplary methods include using a cyclic deposition process that includes providing a copper precursor to a reaction chamber and providing an iodine reactant to the reaction chamber. Exemplary methods can further include providing a reducing agent and/or providing a dopant reactant to the reaction chamber. Structures formed using the method are also described. The structures can be used to form devices, such as memory devices.
