High-Throughput Optical Coating

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Optical coating capabilities expand with a new reactive sputtering process.

Michael Walls and Des Gibson, Applied Multilayers Ltd.

Sputtering processes for thin-film deposition are naturally energetic and generally do not require additional heat input to generate good morphology. As a result, sputtering is a suitable deposition technique for heat-sensitive substrates such as polymers, as well as for traditional substrates such as glass and semiconductors. Sputtering also produces coatings that are dense and spectrally stable when exposed to water vapor in the atmosphere. Reactive sputtering using simple metal or alloy targets offers a number of advantages for high-throughput optical coating applications. Using metal...Read full article

    metrology
    Metrology is the science and practice of measurement. It encompasses the theoretical and practical aspects of measurement, including the development of measurement standards, techniques, and instruments, as well as the application of measurement principles in various fields. The primary objectives of metrology are to ensure accuracy, reliability, and consistency in measurements and to establish traceability to recognized standards. Metrology plays a crucial role in science, industry,...
