This study demonstrates the effectiveness of siliconcarbide films deposited at ambient temperatures. Nanometer scale films showedexcellent moisture resistance due to a small diffusion coefficient. Theydemonstrated high hardness which indicates favorable wear resistance.Chemical resistance was found to be particularly good at room temperature, andhigher temperature tests revealed the possibility of engineering better films. Thefilms have been shown to be extremely flexible, smooth, and pinhole free.Therefore, nanometer scale silicon carbide films have exceptionally goodproperties for use as a protective coating in electronic devices. 2010-05-17 English text Case Western Reserve University School of Graduate Studies / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1269963941 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1269963941 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
