Plasma coating refers to a coating that has been deposited on a substrate surface using a plasma system. This plasma technology is used in a number of applications where a very thin and uniform film thickness is required. Common coating materials include chemicals such as silicon dioxide or silicon nitride as well as a variety of organic polymer forming species.... Plasma coating applications include coating objects with antiglare, dielectric, water repellent(hydrophobic), heat and chemical resistance coatings. A coating may be deposited on a variety of materials including metals, polymers and ceramics. 1, record 1, English, - plasma%20coating

Hughes Aircraft is under contract to the US Air Force to demonstrate for use in manufacturing a new process that coats microelectronic devices with a silicon nitride insulating film, offering several key advantages over previous insulating techniques. Microcircuits are prepared for a reactor chamber designed for the photo-chemical vapour deposition(Photo-CVD) process. Developed by Hughes with company funds, Photo-CVD offers the potential of eliminating wire bond corrosion, device degradation due to leaky standard metal or ceramic hermetic packages, and failure due to loose conductive particles. According to the company, it is not destructive because it does not generate the ionized particles and broadband electromatic radiation encountered in Plasma-CVD and physical sputtering processes. 1, record 21, English, - photochemical%20vapour%20deposition

Le film ne provoque lui-même aucune détérioration, étant donné qu'il ne produit ni particules ionisées ni rayonnement électromagnétique à large bande comme c'est le cas avec le procédé Plasma-CVD et les méthodes classiques de pulvérisation. 1, record 21, French, - d%C3%A9position%20de%20vapeur%20photochimique
