Moisture barrier enhancement by spontaneous formation of silicon oxide interlayers in hot wire chemical vapor deposition of silicon nitride on poly(glycidyl methacrylate)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We deposited a silicon nitride (SiNx)–polymer hybrid multilayer moisture barrier in a hot wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD) process, entirely below 100 °C. The polymer, poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA), was deposited by initiated chemical vapour deposition and the SiNx in a dedicated HWCVD reactor. Line profile investigation of our barrier structures by cross-sectional scanning transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry reveals that, upon deposition of SiNx on top of our polymer layer, an intermediate layer of silicon oxide (SiOx) like material is formed. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements confirm the presence of this material and indicate the epoxy rings in the PGMA material open upon heating (to 100 °C) and exposure to atomic hydrogen and amine species in the HWCVD process. The oxygen atoms subsequently react with silicon and nitrogen containing radicals to form SiOxNy. The interlayer turns out to be highly beneficial for interlayer adhesion and this is considered to be one of the reasons for the excellent barrier properties of our multilayer.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
