Devices having a thin film or laminate structure comprising hafnium and/or zirconium oxy hydroxy compounds, and methods for making such devices, are disclosed. The hafnium and zirconium compounds can be doped, typically with other metals, such as lanthanum. Examples of electronic devices or components that can be made include, without limitation, insulators, transistors and capacitors. A method for patterning a device using the materials as positive or negative resists or as functional device components also is described. For example, a master plate for imprint lithography can be made. An embodiment of a method for making a device having a corrosion barrier also is described. Embodiments of an optical device comprising an optical substrate and coating also are described. Embodiments of a physical ruler also are disclosed, such as for accurately measuring dimensions using an electron microscope.
An aqueous inorganic patterning composition comprising water, metal suboxide cations, polyatomic anions, and a coordinating species comprising a peroxide group, wherein the composition comprise Cu, Al, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, In, Sn, Sb, Hf, Ta, W, Ir, Pt, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu or a combination thereof.
A method for forming a pattern of an inorganic material on a substrate, comprising:
A method for forming an inorganic patterning composition, the method comprising mixing an aqueous solution comprising metal suboxide cations, polyatomic anions and a coordinating species comprising a peroxide group, to form an inorganic patterning composition, wherein the composition comprises Cu, Al, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, In, Sn, Sb, Hf, Ta, W, Ir, Pt, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu or a combination thereof.
