Embodiments relate to depositing on one or more layers of materials on a fiber or fiber containing material using atomic layer deposition (ALD) to provide or enhance functionalities of the fibers or fiber containing material. Such functionalities include, for example, higher rigidity, higher strength, addition of resistance to bending, addition of resistance to impact or addition of resistance to tensile force of a fiber or fiber containing material. A layer of material is deposited coated on the fibers or the fiber containing material and then the surface of the material is oxidized, nitrified or carbonized to increase the volume of the material. By increasing the volume of the material, the material is subject to compressive stress. The compressive stress renders the fibers or the fiber containing material more rigid, stronger and more resistant against bending force, impact or tensile force. |
