A silicon chalcogenate precursor comprising the chemical formula of Si(XR 1 ) n R 2 n 4-n , where X is sulfur, selenium, or tellurium, R 1 is hydrogen, an alkyl group, a substituted alkyl group, an alkoxide group, a substituted alkoxide group, an amide group, a substituted amide group, an amine group, a substituted amine group, or a halogen group, each R 2 is independently hydrogen, an alkyl group, a substituted alkyl group, an alkoxide group, a substituted alkoxide group, an amide group, a substituted amide group, an amine group, a substituted amine group, or a halogen group, and n is 1, 2, 3, or 4. Methods of forming the silicon chalcogenate precursor, methods of forming silicon nitride, and methods of forming a semiconductor structure are also disclosed. |
