Typically when one wants to deposit gold on something, an adhesion layer is used. Cr, NiCr &Ti, are some common ones, but try just looking up "adhesion layer" or "tie coat." If any of those materials are available to you then you can deposit a thin film (a couple nm, 5-10) on top of your oxide before putting the gold. -Joe Grogan pradeep # sharma wrote: > Hai Everyone, > Anyone can suggest me a dielectric material with good adhesion to > Ag thin film or a method to improve the adhesion of SiO2 with Ag?
