Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) deposits atoms or molecules by reducing the decomposition of a chemical-vapor precursor species that contains the material to be deposited. The reduction is normally accomplished using hydrogen at an elevated temperature. Decomposition is accomplished by thermal activation. The use of a plasma allows the reduction or decomposition to be done at a lower temperature than using temperature alone. 3, record 1, English, - plasma%2Denhanced%20chemical%20vapor%20deposition

La deposición de películas delgadas de materiales dieléctricos para separar eléctricamente partes de los dispositivos electrónicos a realizar es inevitable en la mayor parte de los casos. Una de las técnicas mejor establecidas para ello es la deposición en fase vapor asistida por plasma [...], que permite obtener dieléctricos con baja porosidad y uniformes en tallas laterales de sustrato grandes, conformes con la topología del sustrato, y con velocidades de depósito altas. 1, record 1, Spanish, - deposici%C3%B3n%20qu%C3%ADmica%20en%20fase%20vapor%20asistida%20por%20plasma
