    摘要: We have devised an apparatus useful for and a method of removing impurities from vaporous precursor compositions used to generate reactive precursor vapors from which thin films/layers are formed under sub-atmospheric conditions. The method is particularly useful when the layer deposition apparatus provides for precise addition of quantities of different combinations of reactants during a single step or when there are a number of different individual steps in the layer formation process, where the presence of impurities has a significant affect on both the quantity of reactants being charged and the overall composition of the reactant mixture from which the layer is deposited. The method is particularly useful when the vapor pressure of a liquid reactive precursor is less than about 250 Torr at atmospheric pressure.

    摘要: We have developed an improved vapor-phase deposition method and apparatus for the application of organic films/coatings containing a variety of functional groups on substrates. Most substrates can be coated using the method of the invention. The substrate surface is halogenated using a vaporous halogen-containing compound, followed by a reaction with at least one organic molecule containing at least one nucleophilic functional group capable of reacting with a halogenated substrate surface. The halogenation of the substrate surface and the subsequent reaction with the organic molecule nucleophilic functional group are carried out in the same process chamber in a manner such that the halogenated substrate surface does not lose its functionality prior to reaction with the nucleophilic functional group(s) on the organic molecule. Typically the process chamber is operated under a pressure ranging from about 1 mTorr to about 10 Torr.

    摘要: We have developed an improved vapor-phase deposition method and apparatus for the application of films/coatings on substrates. The method provides for the addition of a precise amount of each of the reactants to be consumed in a single reaction step of the coating formation process. In addition to the control over the amount of reactants added to the process chamber, the present invention requires precise control over the total pressure (which is less than atmospheric pressure) in the process chamber, the partial vapor pressure of each vaporous component present in the process chamber, the substrate temperature, and typically the temperature of a major processing surface within said process chamber. Control over this combination of variables determines a number of the characteristics of a film/coating or multi-layered film/coating formed using the method. By varying these process parameters, the roughness and the thickness of the films/coatings produced can be controlled.
