Deposition
Metal deposition
By e-beam, thermal and sputtering deposition. Metals available for coating are Pt, Ru, Pd, Au, Ag, Co, Ti, Cu, Al, Ta, Cr, Sn, and Ni.
Precious metals (Gold, Silver, Platinum, Palladium). Deposition of the desired
thickness (1-1000nm) can be carried out on single or multiple substrates (glass,
plastic, paper, silicon wafer, quartz, sapphire) with dimensions up to 4-inch.
Single or multiple layer deposition can be performed as well.
Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD)
Deposition of Silicon Oxide and Silicon Nitride layers at low growth temperatures
down to 80°C can be performed. SiO2 and SixNy layers up to 500nm thickness.
Substrate maximum size up to 6-inch.
Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD)
Deposition of various metal-oxide layers of great uniformity and conformity can
be performed on flat, as well as on 3D curved, substrates. Deposition is done at
the temperature range of 50°C-250°C, allowing thus the use of photolithographic lift-off procedures. Ultrathin films down to 1 nm and up to100-200nm can be achieved with great uniformity. Metal Oxides such as ZrO, HfO (high K dielectrics) ZnO, Al 2 O 3, and TiO2 are available.
Parylene Conformal coating Deposition
Parylene is the trade name for a variety of chemical vapor deposited poly(p-xylylene) polymers used as moisture and dielectric barriers. Parylene films have been used in various applications, including Hydrophobic coating (moisture barriers, e.g., for biomedical hoses Barrier layers (e.g., for a filter, diaphragms, valves Microwave electronics Implanted Medical devices Sensors in a rough environment (e.g., automotive fuel/air sensors). Electronics for space travel and military Corrosion protection for metallic surfaces.
Reinforcement of micro-structures Protection of plastic, rubber, etc., from harmful environmental conditions Reduction of friction, e.g., for guiding catheters, acupuncture needles and microelectromechanical systems.
Thin to thick Parylene layers can be deposited on any substrate. The Parylene deposition process is carried out at room temperature, thus allowing the conformal covering of temperature sensitive materials.
