Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein generally relate to the processing of substrates, and more particularly, relate to methods for forming a dielectric film. In one embodiment, the method includes placing a plurality of substrates inside a processing chamber and performing a sequence of exposing the substrates to a first reactive gas comprising silicon, and then exposing the substrates to a plasma of a second reactive gas comprising nitrogen and at least one of oxygen or carbon, and repeating the sequence to form the dielectric film comprising silicon carbon nitride or silicon carbon oxynitride on each of the substrates.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to protective coatings on aerospace components and methods for depositing the protective coatings. In one or more embodiments, an aerospace component has a body containing a nickel superalloy, a metal oxide template layer disposed on the body, and an aluminum oxide layer disposed between the body of the aerospace component and the metal oxide template layer. The metal oxide template layer contains chromium oxide, chromium oxide hydroxide, or a combination thereof. The aluminum oxide layer contains α-Al2O3. The metal oxide template layer and the aluminum oxide layer have a corundum crystal structure and have crystal structures with a lattice mismatch of about 0.1% to about 10%.
Abstract:
Methods for forming protective coatings on aerospace components are provided. In one or more embodiments, the method includes exposing an aerospace component to a first precursor and a first reactant to form a first deposited layer on a surface of the aerospace component by a first deposition process (e.g., CVD or ALD), and exposing the aerospace component to a second precursor and a second reactant to form a second deposited layer on the first deposited layer by a second deposition process. The first deposited layer and the second deposited layer have different compositions from each other. The method also includes repeating the first deposition process and the second deposition process to form a nanolaminate film stack having from 2 pairs to about 1,000 pairs of the first deposited layer and the second deposited layer consecutively deposited on each other.

Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to protective coatings on an aerospace component and methods for depositing the protective coatings. In one or more embodiments, a method for depositing a protective coating on an aerospace component includes sequentially exposing the aerospace component to a chromium precursor and a reactant to form a chromium-containing layer on a surface the aerospace component by an atomic layer deposition process. The chromium-containing layer contains metallic chromium, chromium oxide, chromium nitride, chromium carbide, chromium silicide, or any combination thereof.
Abstract:
Protected aerospace components are provided and contain a nanolaminate film stack disposed on a surface of an aerospace component, where the nanolaminate film stack comprises alternating layers of a chromium-containing layer and a second deposited layer. The chromium-containing layer can include metallic chromium, chromium oxide, chromium nitride, chromium carbide, chromium silicide, or any combination thereof.
