ABSTRACT:
The invention includes methods of forming titanium-containing materials, such as, for example, titanium silicide. The invention can use alternating cycles of titanium halide precursor and one or more reductants to form the titanium-containing material. For instance, the invention can utilize alternating cycles of titanium tetrachloride and activated hydrogen to form titanium silicide on a surface of a silicon-containing substrate.
