Formation of amorphous metal alloys by chemical vapor deposition

Patent · Fri Mar 18 00:00:00 EST 1988

OSTI ID:6164502

Mullendore, A. W.

Amorphous alloys are deposited by a process of thermal dissociation of mixtures of organometallic compounds and metalloid hydrides,e.g., transition metal carbonyl, such as nickel carbonyl and diborane. Various sizes and shapes of deposits can be achieved, including near-net-shape free standing articles, multilayer deposits, and the like. Manipulation or absence of a magnetic field affects the nature and the structure of the deposit. 1 fig.
