Thin Film Deposition System

Prevac Sputtering Deposition System

Royce Discovery Centre | University of Sheffield

This system offers a unique capability in the combinatorial deposition of thin films and coatings for the rapid discovery of new material compositions.

Description

The system’s ability to simultaneously deposit from a large number of sources, along with its capability to create variable compositions on a single wafer, makes it ideal for materials discovery in such areas as high entropy metal alloys (alloys with five or more elements in similar proportions). The system will also allow the exploration of new functional materials systems, for example, thin-film magnetic multi-layers and functional ceramics.

Uses / Applications

Thin film sputtering and e-beam evaporation for thin film alloy development.
