Patent number: 8110043Abstract: A methodology and system for applying coatings onto the interior surfaces of components, includes a vapor creation device, a vacuum chamber having a moderate gas pressure and an inert gas jet having controlled velocity and flow fields. The gas jet is created by a rarefied, inert gas supersonic expansion through a nozzle. By controlling the carrier gas flow into a region upstream of the nozzle an upstream pressure is achieved. The carrier gas flow and chamber pumping rate control the downstream pressure. The ratio of the upstream to downstream pressure along with the size and shape of the nozzle opening controls the speed of the gas entering the chamber. Vapor created from a source is transported into the interior regions of a component using binary collisions between the vapor and gas jet atoms. These collisions enable the vapor atoms to scatter onto the interior surfaces of the component and deposit.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2005Date of Patent: February 7, 2012Assignee: University of Virginia Patent FoundationInventors: Derek D.

Publication number: 20110086565Abstract: A three dimensional woven preform, a fiber reinforced composite incorporating the preform, and methods of making thereof are disclosed. The woven preform includes two or more warp steered fabrics. The warp steered fabrics include a darted portion and an un-darted portion. The darted portions of the warp steered fabrics are joined to un-darted portions of one another so as to provide continuous fiber in the circumferential and radial directions of all portions of the preform. An un-darted portion in one steered fabric reinforces a darted portion in the other. The warp steered fabrics can be woven on a loom equipped with a differential take-up mechanism. The warp steered fabrics can be single or multilayer fabrics. The final preform can be a portion of an aircraft window frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2010Publication date: April 14, 2011Applicant: Albany Engineered Composites, Inc.Inventor: Jonathan Goering

Patent number: 7910173Abstract: A thermal barrier coating and deposition process for a component intended for use in a hostile thermal environment, such as the turbine, combustor and augmentor components of a gas turbine engine. The TBC has a first coating portion on at least a first surface portion of the component. The first coating portion is formed of a ceramic material to have at least an inner region, at least an outer region overlying the inner region, and a columnar microstructure whereby the inner and outer regions comprise columns of the ceramic material. The columns of the inner region are more closely spaced than the columns of the outer region so that the inner region of the first coating portion is denser than the outer region of the first coating portion, wherein the higher density of the inner region promotes the impact resistance of the first coating portion.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2008Date of Patent: March 22, 2011Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Irene Spitsberg, Brett Allen Rohrer Boutwell, Robert William Bruce, Curtis Alan Johnson, Bangalore Aswatha Nagaraj, William Scott Walston, Rudolfo Viguie, Joshua Leigh Miller, Roger Dale Wustman

METHOD OF DEPOSITING A MULTILAYER COATING WITH A VARIETY OF OXIDE ADHESION LAYERS AND ORGANIC LAYERS
Publication number: 20110052808Abstract: An improved vapor-phase deposition method and apparatus for the application of multilayered films/coatings on substrates is described. The method is used to deposit multilayered coatings where the thickness of an oxide-based layer in direct contact with a substrate is controlled as a function of the chemical composition of the substrate, whereby a subsequently deposited layer bonds better to the oxide-based layer. The improved method is used to deposit multilayered coatings where an oxide-based layer is deposited directly over a substrate and a SAM organic-based layer is directly deposited over the oxide-based layer. Typically a series of alternating layers of oxide-based layer and organic-based layer are applied.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2010Publication date: March 3, 2011Inventors: Boris Kobrin, Jeffrey D.

Patent number: 7892985Abstract: Improved methods for preparing a low-k dielectric material on a substrate using microwave radiation are provided. The use of microwave radiation allows the preparation of low-k films to be accomplished at low temperatures. According to various embodiments, microwave radiation is used to remove porogen from a precursor film and/or to increase the strength of the resulting porous dielectric layer. In a preferred embodiment, methods involve (a) forming a precursor film that contains a porogen and a structure former on a substrate, (b) exposing the precursor film to microwave radiation to remove the porogen from the precursor film to thereby create voids within the dielectric material and form the porous low-k dielectric layer and (c) exposing the dielectric material to microwave radiation in a manner that increases the mechanical strength of the porous low-k dielectric layer.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2005Date of Patent: February 22, 2011Assignee: Novellus Systems, Inc.Inventors: Seon-Mee Cho, George D.
