Sumario:[Image: see text] A series of new mixed-substituted heteronuclear precursors with preformed Si–Ge bonds has been synthesized via a two-step synthesis protocol. The molecular sources combine convenient handling with sufficient thermal lability to provide access to group IV alloys with low carbon content. Differences in the molecule–material conversion by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) techniques are described and traced back to the molecular design. This study illustrates the possibility of tailoring the physical and chemical properties of single-source precursors for their application in the CVD of Si(1–x)Ge(x) coatings. Moreover, partial crystallization of the Si(1–x)Ge(x) has been achieved by Ga metal-supported CVD growth, which demonstrated the potential of the presented precursor class for the synthesis of crystalline group IV alloys.
