Diagram of the samples after process of atomic layer deposition with the cyclic supply of titanium tetrachloride and methane. (a) Initial surface of dispersed iron particles with methyl functional groups after exposure CH4; (b) exposure of titanium tetrachloride giving titanium-chloride groups; (c) exposure of methane giving titanium-carbon groups; (d) and (e) repeated sequential exposures of titanium tetrachloride and methane, respectively (reactions (1)–(4)).
