Methods of depositing pure metal and aluminum alloy metal films. Certain methods comprises contacting a substrate surface with first and second precursors, the first precursor comprising an aluminum precursor selected from dimethylaluminum hydride, alane coordinated to an amine, and a compound having a structure represented by: n nwherein R is a C1-C6 alkyl group, and the second precursor comprising a metal halide. Other methods relate to sequentially exposing a substrate to a first and second precursor, the first precursor comprising an aluminum precursor as described above, and the second precursor comprising Ti(NR′ 2 ) 4 or Ta(NR′ 2 ) 5 , wherein R′ is an alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, keto or aldehyde group. |
