Transition metal nitrides, like titanium nitride (TiN), are promising alternative plasmonic materials. Here we demonstrate a low temperature plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD) of non-stoichiometric TiN0.71 on lattice-matched and -mismatched substrates. The TiN was found to be optically metallic for both thick (42 nm) and thin (11 nm) films on MgO and Si <100> substrates, with visible light plasmon resonances in the range of 550–650 nm. We also demonstrate that a hydrogen plasma post-deposition treatment improves the metallic quality of the ultrathin films on both substrates, increasing the ε1 slope by 1.3 times on MgO and by 2 times on Si (100), to be similar to that of thicker, more metallic films. In addition, this post-deposition was found to tune the plasmonic properties of the films, resulting in a blue-shift in the plasmon resonance of 44 nm on a silicon substrate and 59 nm on MgO.

Ordered arrays of straight, parallel SnO2 nanotubes are prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD) on inert ‘anodic’ alumina porous membranes serving as templates. The tunable geometry yields exceptional capacity retention after hundreds of cycles.

In this work, we investigated the influence of passivation coating of aluminum oxide on cycle life of lithium-ion batteries. Al2O3 was synthesized by atomic layer deposition directly on the porous electrodes based on LiCoO2. More than 800 charge-discharge cycles were done. No increase of internal resistance due to Al2O3 coating was observed. According to the results, electrodes coated by aluminum oxide have better cycle life.
