Atmospheric plasmas for thin film deposition: A critical review

Autor: François Reniers, Delphine Merche, Nicolas Vandencasteele

Publikováno v: Thin Solid Films. 520:4219-4236

An overview of the possibilities of atmospheric plasma for the deposition of inorganic and organic coatings is presented. Some particularities of the atmospheric discharges and their consequences on the synthesis of films are presented and discussed.
