Metal alkoxides as precursors for thin-film growth

The metal alkoxides [M (OR) x ] n are excellent precursor compounds for synthesizing pure metal oxides, glasses and ceramics by either the MOCVD or the sol—gel technique depending on the volatility and solubility of the metal alkoxide. Factors controlling the volatility of metal alkoxides are discussed together with possible mechanisms for the oxide deposition processes.

AbstractIn the present work, a sol-gel method of HA synthesis has been developed using different calcium and phosphorous precursors. In order to make a porous scaffold, HA aerogel formation and HA liofilization processes have been studied. The liofilized HA and the HA aerogels have been characterized by SEM-EDX and X-Ray difraction. Finally, so as to improve the biocompatibility and the bioadhesion of the HA scaffolds, different plasma polymerization techniques have been studied. Acrylic acid has been polymerized using plasma polymerization with a radiofrequency source. Different radiofrequency source powers and reactor designs have been tryed. The kinetics of the thin film growth have been studied and the optimal polymerization conditions have been established. Polymeric layers have been characterized by IR and XPS.
