Abstract

A process is provided for selectively depositing copper films on metallic or other electrically conducting portions of substrate surfaces by contacting the substrate at a temperature from 110.degree. to 190.degree. C. with a volatile organometallic copper complex, in the gas phase, represented by the structural formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.3 are each independently C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 perfluoroalkyl, R.sup.2 is H or C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 perfluoroalkyl and L is carbon monoxide, an isonitrile, or an unsaturated hydrocarbon ligand containing at least one non-aromatic unsaturation.
