Abstract: This paper discusses the use of two relative unexploited classes of molecules based on imino-dialkylphosphinate [(EPR2)2NH] (E = Se or Te) and dialkyldiselenophosphinate [HNEt3][R2PSe2] and subsequently, their potential for the deposition of useful materials as either thin films or nanoparticles. The structural properties of the materials obtained were elucidated by means of X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope.
