Did you know? The CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) process is commonly used to create titanium nitride coatings. In this process, several chemicals (TiC14, N2 and H2) are fed into a furnace where they react at an elevated temperature to create TiN, which deposits on the surfaces as a coating. Due to its golden appearance TiN coatings are often used on jewelry, household fixtures and automotive trim for decorative purposes. Similar coatings are also used as a non-toxic surface for medical devices and equipment. These types of coatings are now also being applied in advanced biomedical device applications including in-vivo biosensors.

This application note from from Brooks Instrument, highlights requirements and benefits of mass flow controllers and meters in this process. Take a look at the full application note: Accurate, Stable Gas and Liquid Feed Delivery for Titanium Nitride Coatings.
