2. Preparation Technology of Nano-Coatings
2.1. Chemical Vapor Deposition
2.1.1. Principles and Characteristics of Chemical Vapor Deposition
- Ability to produce high density and pure materials;
- Uniform films with good reproducibility and adhesion are produced at a rather high deposition rate;
- CVD is a non-line-of-sight process with fine ejection capability. It can be used to uniformly coat components with complex shapes and deposit thin films with good conformal coverage. This unique feature surpasses the PVD process;
- It takes on the capability to control the crystallographic texture, surface morphology and tropism of CVD products pass through controlling the technological parameter of CVD;
- The deposition rate can be easily adjusted, and the low deposition rate facilitates the growth of epitaxial films for microelectronic applications;
- Traditional CVD technology has low processing costs.
- Toxic, corrosive, flammable and/or explosive precursor gases are used in CVD processes, which can cause chemical and safety hazards;
- Because different precursors have different evaporation rates, it is difficult to use stoichiometric multi-component materials with well-controlled multi-source precursor deposition;
- CVD variants use more complex reactors and vacuum systems, which are manufactured by low pressure or ultra-high vacuum CVD, plasma-assisted CVD and photo-assisted CVD, etc., resulting in increased manufacturing costs.

- The process is simple and the equipment requirements are low.
- Raw materials are expensive and some organics are harmful to health;
- The preparation cycle is long, which usually takes days or weeks;
- There are a lot of micropores in the gel, and many gases and organics will escape during the drying process, and shrinkage will occur.

2.4.1. Principle and Characteristics of Laser Cladding Method
