Title: Seán Barry and Selective Molecular Deposition
Introduction
Seán Barry is an inventor associated with Ottawa, Canada. His patent work describes a method for selectively depositing small molecules on metal surfaces, with potential applications in surface patterning and materials processing.
Latest Patents
Barry is associated with 1 patent: “Method of Selective Deposition of Small Molecules on Metal Surfaces.” The method uses a patterned substrate with adjacent metal and dielectric areas inside a deposition chamber connected to a bubbler containing an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precursor. Heating the bubbler generates gaseous free NHC, which is pulsed into the chamber and selectively chemisorbs onto the metal. Annealing after deposition can improve the pattern by removing stray metal from the dielectric area.
Career Highlights
Barry’s listed institutional affiliations include Queen’s University at Kingston and The University of Western Ontario. His patent describes a process designed to control where NHC molecules deposit on a patterned surface.
Collaborations
Barry’s listed coworkers include Cathleen M. Crudden and Paul Ragogna.
Conclusion
Seán Barry’s patent focuses on selective NHC deposition and post-deposition annealing to improve surface patterning, reflecting his work connected with Canadian university institutions.
