Abstract: A method of forming a diffusion barrier on an article of a polymer blend of (i) a high surface energy polymer and (ii) a low surface energy polymer. Most commonly the low surface energy polymer is an organosilicon polymer, as a polysilane or a polysiloxane. The surface of the article is exposed to ozone and ultraviolet radiation to form a diffusion barrier.

Chemical vapor deposition method for forming fluorine containing silicon oxide film
Tetsuya Homma
- 05 Jun 1992
TL;DR: In this paper, a chemical vapor deposition method for forming a fluorine-containing silicon oxide film was proposed, which involves introducing a gaseous mixture of alkoxysilane or its polymers as a source gas with fluoroalkoxysilicane added thereto into a reaction chamber and performing decomposition of the gaseusous mixture to deposit the fluorine containing silicon oxide on a substrate.
