TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - INSTRUMENTATION AND TESTING - Preferred Method: The solid phase comprises a continuous or non-continuous coating over the target surface. The method of delivering, condensing and curing materials within a deposition chamber comprises: delivering the material into the deposition chamber in the gas phase along with an inert gas; forming the plasma from the inert gas; depositing an inorganic coating on top of the coating formed by the solid phase; and depositing a graded composition barrier coating on a coating formed by the solid phase, where the graded-composition barrier coating comprises an inorganic and organic material including a composition which varies substantially continuously across a thickness of the graded-composition barrier coating. In the method of delivering, condensing and curing materials within a deposition chamber: solidifying the liquid phase comprises facilitating solidification of the liquid phase of the material into the solid phase with a thermal curing feature, UV light source or an ultraviolet and visible light source disposed within the deposition chamber; solidifying the liquid phase of the material into the solid phase comprises forming a smoothing coating and forming a barrier coating over the smoothing coating; heating non-target surfaces within the deposition chamber to a temperature sufficient to substantially limit condensation on the non-target surfaces; forming menisci in the liquid phase of the material to the adjacent surface features of the target surface and/or particles on the target surface; and forming a smoothing and/or planarizing coating over structures or particles on the target surface, where a thickness of the coating is on the same order of magnitude or greater than a thickness of the structures or particles. The method of condensing a material from gas phase into a solid layer within the deposition chamber comprises: solidifying the stable liquid phase of the material by activating UV light disposed within the deposition chamber; and solidifying the stable liquid phase of the material via exposure to a plasma within the deposition chamber, where the plasma is formed by ignition of the inert gas. The method of forming a smoothing layer and barrier coating on the target within the deposition chamber comprises: flowing a precursor vapor into the deposition chamber via a heated inlet system, where the precursor vapor comprises the material in a gas phase; forming the barrier coating over the smoothing layer; and forming a second smoothing layer on the barrier coating by condensing a second material into a liquid phase of the second material on the target within the deposition chamber, and solidifying the liquid phase of the second material within the deposition chamber to form the second smoothing layer, where the second smoothing layer is configured for impact and/or abrasion resistance. Preferred Components: The deposition chamber comprises a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition chamber or a hot-wall deposition chamber. The solidification feature comprises an UV light or UV and visible light source. The inlet system is capable of delivering the organic material onto the target surface directly or indirectly regardless of line of sight. The inlet system comprises a showerhead, injector, mass flow controller and/or bubbler. The system comprises a trap disposed along the inlet system before the hot-wall deposition chamber, where the trap is capable of being kept at a lower temperature than temperatures of non-target surfaces within the hot-wall deposition chamber.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Components: The material comprises organic materials, which are radiation-curable alkenes and/or alkynes. EXAMPLE - No suitable example given.
