ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for making vehicle trim components that have a layer(s) including chromium (Cr), in metallic, oxide, nitride, and/or carbide form. In certain embodiments, a Cr inclusive gas is used in conjunction with a vapor deposition apparatus (e.g., PECVD apparatus) in order to form a Cr inclusive layer on a substrate. In certain example embodiments, the substrate may be provided with a conductive layer thereon, and may be electrically biased in the deposition chamber. The Cr inclusive layer may be at least partially amorphous in certain example embodiments.
