The utilization of 2D layers of GaS with its ultraviolet bandgap holds promise for applications in solar-blind photodiodes and LEDs. However, the growth of these 2D layers poses a significant challenge, resulting in the formation of 3D Ga droplets covered by GaS instead of the desired single layers. There is a keen interest in understanding the growth mechanism of the metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process to achieve a high yield of 2D layers. This study focuses on investigating the growth of the precursors di-tert-butylsulfide (DTBS), tri-tert-butylgallium (TTBGa), and the single-source precursor diethylgallium-2-(ethylthio)ethane-1-thiolate (DEGEET) on sapphire. In the absence of Ga atoms on the sapphire surface, DTBS desorbs intact without forming S layers or replacing substrate oxygen. Conversely, TTBGa allows the deposition of Ga atoms, even at significantly lower temperatures than those commonly used in MOCVD processes. DEGEET enables the deposition of thin layers of Ga and S on the sapphire surface at low temperatures. Refining such single-source precursors could pave the way to growing 2D GaS.
