Abstract

See full text

A method of forming of a monomolecular coating (19) for surfaces of contacting elements (11, 17) of micro-mechanical devices (10), specifically, devices that have moving elements that contact other elements and that tend to stick as a result of the contact. The method uses liquid deposition, with the device being placed in a solution that contains a precursor to the formation of the coating. The precursor is chosen based on coordination chemistry between the precursor and the surface to be coated.
