Implementations of the present disclosure relate to an improved shield for use in a processing chamber. In one implementation, the shield includes a hollow body having a cylindrical shape that is substantially symmetric about a central axis of the body, and a coating layer formed on an inner surface of the body. The coating layer is formed the same material as a sputtering target used in the processing chamber. The shield advantageously reduces particle contamination in films deposited using RF-PVD by reducing arcing between the shield and the sputtering target. Arcing is reduced by the presence of a coating layer on the interior surfaces of the shield.

Catalytic metal nanoparticles can be attached on a base. A pre-treatment method for plating includes a catalytic particle-containing film forming process of forming a catalytic particle-containing film on a surface of a substrate by supplying, onto the substrate, a catalytic particle solution which is prepared by dispersing the catalytic metal nanoparticles and a dispersing agent in a solvent containing water; a first heating process of removing moisture contained at least in the catalytic particle-containing film by heating the substrate to a first temperature; and a second heating process of polymerizing the dispersing agent to have a sheet shape by heating the substrate to a second temperature higher than the first temperature after the first heating process and fixing the catalytic metal nanoparticles on a base layer by covering the catalytic metal nanoparticles with the sheet-shaped dispersing agent.

A conductive nanowire film having a high aspect-ratio metal is described. The nanowire film is produced by inducing metal reduction in a concentrated surfactant solution containing metal precursor ions, a surfactant and a reducing agent. The metal nanostructures demonstrate utility in a great variety of applications.

An arc-ablation resistant tungsten alloy switch contact and preparation method is disclosed. A contact member has a three-layer structure, wherein a first layer is a hydrophobic rubber layer, a second layer is a sheet metal layer, and a third layer is a tungsten alloy chemical deposition layer. A plating bath adopted in the chemical deposition contains 25-125 g/L soluble tungsten compound, 0-60 g/L soluble compound of a transition metal like ferrum, nickel, cobalt, copper or manganese, and 0-30 g/L soluble compound of tin, stibium, lead or bismuth. When a layered complex of the hydrophobic rubber layer and the sheet metal layer is chemically plated by the plating bath, a tungsten alloy plated layer is selectively deposited on a metal surface, and chemical deposition of the tungsten alloy does not occur on a surface of the hydrophobic rubber fundamentally.
