Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for depositing Parylene onto a substrate includes operating a first pyrolysis chamber at a first set of parameters to cause cracking of dimers into monomers at the first set of parameters and operating a second pyrolysis chamber at a second set of parameters to cause cracking of dimers into monomers at the second set of parameters. The method includes mixing the monomers at the first set of parameters with monomers at the second set of parameters together and polymerizing the mixture as a protective coating.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1. A method for depositing Parylene onto a substrate, comprising: operating a first pyrolysis chamber at a first set of parameters to cause cracking of dimers into monomers at the first set of parameters, wherein the monomers at the first set of parameters are a precursor to a first Parylene; operating a second pyrolysis chamber at a second set of parameters to cause cracking of dimers into monomers at the second set of parameters, wherein the monomers at the second set of parameters are a precursor to a second Parylene, wherein the first Parylene and the second Parylene are a same Parylene, wherein the first set of parameters includes a longer residence time than the second set of parameters, and wherein the first set of parameters includes a lower temperature than the second set of parameters; mixing the monomers at the first set of parameters with monomers at the second set of parameters together in a third pyrolysis chamber before entering a deposition chamber, wherein, within the third pyrolysis chamber, over-cracked monomer from the first pyrolysis chamber assists in cracking under-cracked dimer from the second pyrolysis chamber; and polymerizing the mixture as a protective coating in the deposition chamber. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the parameters further include pressure, concentration of dimer, amount of dimer, type of dimer, flow rate, or type of material, or a combination thereof. 3. A method for depositing Parylene onto a substrate, comprising: operating a first pyrolysis chamber at a first set of parameters to cause cracking of dimers into monomers at the first set of parameters; operating a second pyrolysis chamber at a second set of parameters to cause cracking of dimers into monomers at the second set of parameters, wherein the first set of parameters includes a longer residence time than the second set of parameters, and wherein the first set of parameters includes a lower temperature than the second set of parameters; mixing the monomers at the first set of parameters with monomers at the second set of parameters together in a third pyrolysis chamber before entering a deposition chamber, wherein, within the third pyrolysis chamber, over-cracked monomer from the first pyrolysis chamber assists in cracking under-cracked dimer from the second pyrolysis chamber; and polymerizing the mixture as a protective coating in the deposition chamber. 4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the monomers at the first set of parameters are a precursor to a first Parylene and wherein the monomers at the second set of parameters are a precursor to a second Parylene. 5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the monomers at the first set of parameters are a precursor to a first Parylene and wherein the monomers at the second set of parameters are a precursor to a second Parylene, wherein the first Parylene and the second Parylene are a same Parylene. 6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the parameters further include pressure, concentration of dimer, amount of dimer, type of dimer, flow rate, or type of material, or a combination thereof.
