Several factors influence the uniformity of nanoscale coatings:
Substrate Surface Properties: Surface roughness and chemical composition can affect how a coating material adheres and spreads. Solution Concentration and Viscosity: Higher concentration and viscosity can lead to thicker films, while lower values may result in thinner, more uniform layers. Process Parameters: These include temperature, pressure, and deposition rate, all of which can significantly impact the coating's uniformity. Environmental Conditions: Humidity, temperature, and cleanliness of the deposition environment can also play critical roles.
