Is Your Thermal Evaporator Damaging Your Substrates?

Blog / By

Want to read offline? [Download PDF] Thermal evaporation remains one of the most widely adopted physical vapour deposition (PVD) techniques in both research and industrial manufacturing. Its appeal is clear: the system is relatively simple to configure, cost-effective for routine metal deposition, and widely understood across thin-film processing environments. For many standard applications, it continues […]

Coating Powders, Pellets, and Small 3D Objects with PVD

Blog / By

Want to read offline? [Download PDF] Most thin-film deposition processes are designed with flat substrates in mind. Wafers, slides and foils present stable surfaces that face the deposition sources directly. In these applications, the science is well understood, the equipment is well established, and the results are predictable. However, a growing number of research and
