In this work, the efficiencies of three organometallic yttrium precursors used to produce YSZ coatings by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition were studied. Yttrium (III) acetylacetonate, Y (acac)₃, yttrium (III) hexafluoroacetylacetonate, Y (acacF₆)₃, and yttrium (III) tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionate), Y (tmhd)₃, were used to stabilize the cubic phase in zirconia deposited at temperatures from 500 to 800 °C. Our results showed that at temperatures between 500 and 600 °C, Y (tmhd)₃ appeared to be the most efficient dopant as it introduced the highest concentration of yttria (1–2.7 mol%) with only 6.4–5.6 at.% carbon. However, at 700 and 800 °C, Y (acac)₃ introduced twice as much yttria (8–15 mol%) as Y (tmhd)₃ with almost the same amount of carbon (5.4–3 at.%). Conversely, Y (acacF6)3 was the least efficient as it maintained a low concentration of yttria of around 0.7–1.8 mol% with 3.6–8.2 at.% carbon for all the deposition temperatures. Among these precursors, only Y (acac)₃ surpassed 8 mol% yttria and achieved a fully stabilized cubic phase at 800 °C, with the remaining samples stabilizing only the tetragonal phase. The tetragonal phase was stabilized due to the formation of crystallites of around 10 nm. The observed difference in the efficiency of the three precursors was correlated to important differences in their decomposition behavior as observed by mass spectrometry and thermogravimetry/differential scanning calorimetry.
