What Techniques are Employed in Low Temperature Processing?
Several advanced techniques are used for low temperature processing, including:
Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): This method involves chemical reactions at low temperatures to deposit thin films of materials. Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD): ALD allows for the precise layer-by-layer deposition of materials at temperatures often below 300°C. Sol-Gel Processes: This technique uses chemical solutions to produce nanomaterials at low temperatures through hydrolysis and condensation reactions. Plasma-Enhanced Methods: These methods utilize plasma to enhance chemical reactions at lower temperatures, ensuring high-quality nanomaterial synthesis.
