Thin films of two ambipolar lithium-organic electrode materials, Li2DHTP and Li4DHTP, are grown from gaseous precursors, Li(thd) (tetramethyl heptanedione) and DHTP (dihydroxyterephthalic acid). These precursors are pulsed into the reactor in a sequential manner like in atomic/molecular layer deposition, but the reaction product, i.e. the di- or the tetra-lithium salt, is controlled by adjusting the precursor pulse lengths.
