The term "ALD" was first used around 2000. This technique achieves atomic layer control and conformal deposition through successive, self-limiting surface reactions. It involves introducing chemical ...

Chemical vapour deposition (CVD) techniques constitute a cornerstone of modern materials science and engineering, enabling the controlled synthesis of thin films with applications spanning ...

Extremely thin films of material are used to make everything from potato chip bags to solar cells, and vapor deposition processes are the common techniques used to make thin layers. Vapor deposition ...

Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) is a well-known technique in the nanofabrication space known for being able to take a vaporized reactant and deposit it onto a surface to form a thin film. There are ...

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Yogesh Vohra, Ph.D., uses microwave-plasma chemical vapor deposition to create thin crystal films of never-before-seen materials. This effort seeks materials that approach a diamond ...
