ABSTRACT:
So-called quantum tunneling varistors are made with a matrix of particles having a nonconductive coating that is deposited on core conductive particles using atomic layer deposition methods. The resulting coated particles have highly uniform, adherent coatings that allow easier production of good quality quantum tunneling varistor devices.
