Amorphous silicon carbide thin film coating

摘要

Amorphous silicon carbide thin film structures, including: protective coatings for windows in infrared process stream monitoring systems and sensor domes, heated windows, electromagnetic interference shielding members and integrated micromachined sensors; high-temperature sensors and circuits; and diffusion barrier layers in VLSI circuits. The amorphous silicon carbide thin film structures are readily formed, e.g., by sputtering at low temperatures.
