Triethylgallium (TEGa) is an organometallic compound with the formula Ga(C2H5)3. It is a colorless, volatile liquid at room temperature and is known for its reactivity, particularly with moisture and air, which can lead to the formation of gallium oxide and other byproducts. TEGa is primarily used in the semiconductor industry, particularly in the production of gallium-containing thin films through metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Its properties include a relatively low boiling point and high vapor pressure, making it suitable for vapor-phase deposition processes. TEGa is also characterized by its ability to act as a source of gallium in various chemical reactions. However, it is highly pyrophoric, meaning it can ignite spontaneously in air, necessitating careful handling and storage under inert atmospheres. Additionally, it poses health hazards, including potential toxicity upon inhalation or skin contact, thus requiring appropriate safety measures during use.
