Study reveals novel uniform coating process of p-ALD

Wednesday, April 20, 2016 - 09:01 in Physics & Chemistry

Scientists at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) have devised a clever combination of materials—when used during the thin-film growth process—to reveal that particle atomic layer deposition, or p-ALD, deposits a uniform nanometer-thick shell on core particles regardless of core size, a discovery having significant impacts for many applications since most large scale powder production techniques form powder batches that are made up of a range of particles sizes.
