Atomic Layer Deposition of l-Alanine Polypeptide

Abstract: L-Alanine polypeptide thin films were synthesized via atomic layer deposition (ALD). Instead of using an amino acid monomer as the precursor, an L-alanine amino acid derivatized with a protecting group was used to prevent self-polymerization, increase the vapor pressure, and allow linear cycle-by-cycle growth emblematic of ALD. The successful deposition of a conformal polypeptide film has been confirmed by FTIR, TEM, and Mass Spectrometry, and the ALD process has been extended to polyvaline.

“…Nanoparticles grown via ALD can also be grown on a variety of supports, with certain control over size and dispersity. As a result of the simplicity and ease in control, a variety of ALD methods and procedures have been developed over the years to allow for the deposition of numerous materials, ranging from thin films such as metal oxides, , metal nitrides, metal sulfides, and pure metal films, to metal nanoparticles such as Pd, Pt, and Ag, among others. These ALD-grown materials have experienced increasing attention and have found applications in catalysis, microelectronics, and most recently MOF metalation and biomimetic materials. , …”

“…18−21 These ALD-grown materials have experienced increasing attention and have found applications in catalysis, 22 microelectronics, 23 and most recently MOF metalation 24 and biomimetic materials. 25,26 The nucleation and growth rate of any ALD material is dependent on the surface chemistry involved, and such an understanding of how the ALD reaction takes place is required for precisely controlling the specific growth rate on a substrate at any given ALD temperature. 27,28 The surface chemistry involved in each ALD half-cycle is also important when evaluating which substrates are suitable for a given ALD process.…”

“…The solar industry is another industry which vastly relies on thin film technology as thin film is a potential alternative to present solar panels since it poses advantages such as easy production and higher flexibility [20,27,[29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. Thin film finds another application in water purification and it can reduce the size of purification unit and also increases the efficiency such as in membrane technology and also fabrication of photocatalyst thin film for water treatment [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43]. Thin film is very useful in wastewater treatment where the application of nanomaterial as a photocatalyst for pollution abatement is needed [44][45][46][47].…”

“…Automobile industries can be accounted as another big applicant of thin film as it finds application in nearly every part of it, for example, applying thin film can reduce the size and improve the life of different parts [50]. Thin film has a huge application on medicine and medical devices, for instance, it can reduce the size of medical devices and make their application easier, more durable and secure [40,[51][52][53]].…”
