Abstract

Process for the depositing, onto a substrate, of a coating essentially constituted of an electronic conductor compound, in which the said coating is formed by producing alternatively, on the one hand, in at least one depositing zone, one or several deposits of a determined thickness of an electronic conductor element on the substrate, and, on the other hand, in at least one reaction zone, one or several reactions of the element thus deposited with ions of a reactive gas which are implanted into the deposit of the above-mentioned element over approximately this entire thickness determined in a way as to form, preferably with the totality of this element, the said compound, the above-mentioned ions being submitted to a kinetic energy below 2000 V, while the aforesaid thickness of the deposit of the element is determined as a function of the kinetic energy applied in such a way as to allow the implantation of these ions over approximately this entire thickness.
