Abstract
Vapor deposition processes for forming thin films comprising molybdenum on a substrate are provide. In some embodiments the processes comprise a plurality of deposition cycles in which the substrate is separately contacted with a vapor phase molybdenum precursor comprising a molybdenum halide, a first reactant comprising CO, and a second reactant comprising H2. In some embodiments the thin film comprises MoC, Mo2C, or MoOC. In some embodiments the substrate is additionally contacted with a nitrogen reactant and a thin film comprising molybdenum, carbon and nitrogen is deposited, such as MoCN or MoOCN.
