Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide an improved process for depositing tungsten-containing materials. The process utilizes soak processes and vapor deposition processes to provide tungsten films having significantly improved surface uniformity while increasing the production level throughput. In one embodiment, a method is provided which includes depositing a tungsten silicide layer on the substrate by exposing the substrate to a continuous flow of a silicon precursor while also exposing the substrate to intermittent pulses of a tungsten precursor. The method further provides that the substrate is exposed to the silicon and tungsten precursors which have a silicon/tungsten precursor flow rate ratio of greater than 1, for example, about 2, about 3, or greater. Subsequently, the method provides depositing a tungsten nitride layer on the tungsten suicide layer, depositing a tungsten nucleation layer on the tungsten nitride layer, and depositing a tungsten bulk layer on the tungsten nucleation layer.
Abstract:
The invention herein relates to a pharmaceutical composition containing loratadine and derivatives thereof which is suitable for use in soft capsule dosage forms. A pharmaceutical composition according to the invention comprises loratadine and derivatives thereof in a pharmaceutically effective amount; and a solvent system comprising a mixture of medium chain fatty acids. The loratadine compositions exhibit good solubility and storage stability while maintaining bioavailability of the drug. The compositions also permit high concentrations of solubilized loratadine per total fill volume and thereby permit the use of smaller capsules to deliver the same dosage of drug.
