Patent ID: 7906171

Claim:
A method for producing a layer ( 110 ) having nanoparticles ( 40 ), on a substrate ( 100 ), wherein nanoparticles ( 40 ) are released and a nanoparticle stream ( 50 ) is produced in a first process chamber ( 10 ), the nanoparticle stream ( 50 ) is passed into a second process chamber ( 80 ), with the nanoparticle stream being passed laterally over a surface ( 120 ) of the substrate ( 100 ) which is located in the second process chamber ( 80 ), and the nanoparticles ( 40 ) are deposited with the nanoparticle stream directed on the substrate ( 100 ) in the second process chamber ( 80 ), characterized in that at least one further material is additionally deposited on the substrate in the second process chamber and, together with the nanoparticles, forms the layer having nanoparticles, wherein the further material is passed in the form of a material stream ( 150 ) to the surface ( 120 ) of the substrate ( 100 ), wherein the further material stream ( 150 ) is aligned such that it strikes the surface of the substrate ( 100 ) at right angles and an effusion cell ( 10 ) is used as the first process chamber, and the nanoparticle stream is produced in the effusion cell.
