A method for applying coatings to substrates using combustion chemical vapor deposition by mixing together a reagent and a carrier solution to form a reagent mixture, igniting the reagent mixture to create a flame, or flowing the reagent mixture through a plasma torch, in which the reagent is at least partially vaporized into a vapor phase, and contacting the vapor phase of the reagent to a substrate resulting in the deposition, at least in part from the vapor phase, of a coating of the reagent which can be controlled so as to have a preferred orientation on the substrate, and an apparatus to accomplish this method.

A method for applying a coating selected from the group consisting of a metal, metal oxide, nitride, carbide, fluoride, boride and carbonate to substrates using chemical vapor deposition comprising the steps of: (a) providing a substrate having at least one surface to be coated; (b) selecting a reagent and a carrier medium and mixing together said reagent and said carrier medium to form a reagent mixture, the reagent being selected such that at least a portion of the reagent forms the metal, metal oxide, nitride, carbide, fluoride, boride and carbonate coating; (c) providing a combustion means; (d) providing an oxidant to said combustion means to assist in combusting said reagent mixture; (e) introducing said reagent mixture into said combustion means and combusting said reagent mixture thereby producing a flame which produces radiant energy and hot gases and vaporizing at least a portion of said reagent into a vapor phase; (f) locating said substrate in a zone located relative to said flame such that the substrate is heated by said radiant energy and said hot gases of said flame sufficiently to allow adhesion of said vapor phase onto said substrate to form the metal, metal oxide, nitride, carbide, fluoride, boride and carbonate coating on said substrate; and (g) contacting said vapor phase of said reagent with said substrate in said zone resulting in the deposition from said vapor phase of the metal, metal oxide, nitride, carbide, fluoride, boride and carbonate coating onto said substrate.
