Component for nano- and molecular electronics, has protective layer made of polymer-containing material, arranged on undercoating, where chain length of polymer part in protective layer is five times as large as in undercoating

Simple SummaryContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

This patent describes a component for use in nano- and molecular electronics, consisting of a substrate covered first by a polymer-based undercoating and then by a protective polymer layer. The protective layer uses a polymer with a much longer chain length than the undercoating (five times longer), with both layers made from polymethylmethacrylate variants. This layered structure provides enhanced performance or protection for sensitive electronic components.

Use CasesContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

Patent Abstract

A component has a substrate with a structure applied on it. An undercoating of a polymer-containing material covers the structure and the substrate. A protective layer made of another polymer-containing material is arranged on the undercoating. The chain length of the polymer part in the protective layer is five times as large as in the undercoating. The undercoating is made of polymethylmethacrylate and the protective layer is made of another polymethylmethacrylate. An independent claim is also included for applying an arrangement of an undercoating and a protective layer on a component.
