Abstract

A process for the preparation of active surfaces terminated by a desired form of organic, organic-inorganic, or inorganic nature comprising growing with a gas phase deposition technique preferable the ALCVD (atomic layer chemical vapour deposition) technique. As an example, trimethylaluminium (TMA), hydroquinone (Hq) and phloroglucinol (Phl) have been used as precursors to fabricate surfaces that are terminated by hydroxyl groups attached to aromates. Further types of active surfaces are described. These surfaces can be used to produce surfaces: suitable for adhesion through the use of glue or other adhesive, providing receptors for biological molecules, making the surfaces biocompatible, of catalytically active materials, where upon subsequent types of chemical reactions can take place, with different degrees of wetting properties.
