I am thinking sputtering will be good because we want to coat the silica uniformly.. But i am wondering if there are other methods? Is it possible to achieve uniform coating using liquid chemical method?
Cr is also often used as a bonding layer for Au on SiO2.
Uniform gold coating of silica/glass can be achieved by vacuum cathode sputtering or by vacuum evaporation deposition.
The signalled papers may help:Article An Investigation of Gold/Ceramic and Gold/Glass Interfaces
Article The bonding of gold and gold alloys to non-metallic materials
Thank you all for the advices. i will look them up :)
Please advice on any method, techniques or liquid chemical way to achieve this. Thank you.
