Title:
LOW-TEMPERATURE SYNTHESIS OF SILICA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/156484
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An ambient pressure Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) technique to grow uniform silica layers onto organic substrates at low temperatures, including room temperature, is described. For example, tetramethoxysilane vapor is used alternately with ammonia vapor as a catalyst in an ambient environment.
