Moorfield MiniLab |
Technology Description: |
Magnetron sputtering is a technique which can be used for thin film deposition with a wide range of materials – in principle any solid metal or alloy and a variety of compounds. Sputtering is the removal of atomized material from a solid due to energetic bombardment of its surface layers by ions or neutral particles. The Moorfield offers co-deposition of three targets, and multilayer films without breaking vacuum. The Moorfield is intended for processes which are "dirtyer", i.e. all processes which are not epitaxial or involve materials which are not allowed in the Semicore or Flextura. |
