Scientists at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) have devised a
clever combination of materials - when used during the thin-film growth process
- to reveal that particle atomic layer deposition, or p-ALD, deposits a uniform
nanometer-thick shell on core particles regardless of core size, a discovery
having significant impacts for many applications since most large scale powder
production techniques form powder batches that are made up of a range of
particles sizes.

proactive applications using particle atomic layer deposition, which as
UV, are captured in solar cells and abrasion resistance paints.
