What is it about?

Manganese oxides are very interesting for various applications in the field of catalysis, photocatalysis, and wastewater processes. Manganase is also a key element of the manganites, such as La(Sr)MnO3, that find applications as cathode in the solid oxide fuel cells. This complex represents a very stable and volatile precursor for the metalorganic chemical vapor deposition of Mn containing films.

Why is it important?

This paper describes one of the few Mn(II) precursor with excellent mass transport properties for MOCVD applications.

Perspectives

This article represents a ring of a long chain in our past and future work on MOCVD precursors, covering many elements of the period table ranging from the main group, to transition metals and to lanthanides.
