Plasma Polymerization of APTES to Elaborate Nitrogen Containing Organosilicon Thin Films: Influence of Process Parameters and Discussion About the Growing Mechanisms

Abstract: Plasma polymerization of 3‐aminopropyl‐triethoxysilane (APTES) in microwave late afterglow was studied. First, sol‐gel polymerized APTES was prepared and characterized by ATR–FTIR and XPS. The results obtained were used as a model to define the nature of nitrogen containing groups in the plasma polymer layers. It is shown that the variation of process gas mixture gives the possibility to tailor the chemical composition of the coatings. We show that nitrogen can be present in the thin films as amines, amides, i… Show more

“…Such grafting of nitrogen species is often observed in AP-DBD coating process when N 2 is used as the main gas process and in absence of oxidizing gas. [44][45][46][47][48] The study of the chemical structure of the coating has been analysed in order to better understand the deposition process. Figure 3 shows the ATR FT-IR spectra of the TEP monomer ( Figure 3a) in comparison with the spectrum of the plasma-polymer thin film (Figure 3b).…”
