For thin film optical coatings, most critical production challenges appear in the first half of the manufacturing cycle, particularly in coating deposition methodologies. As explained by Ron Willey, ...
Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed a multi-source co-evaporation recipe ...
Definition: Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) is a sophisticated coating technology widely used to deposit thin films of materials onto various substrates. This technique involves the physical ...
As perovskite solar cells edge closer to commercial, a wealth of different ways to produce them is being suggested, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. One advantage common to most ...
This appendix reviews various coating process technologies: diffusion coating, thermal spray (particulate deposition), physical vapor deposition (atomistic or molecular transfer), and sputtering ...
The term "ALD" was first used around 2000. This technique achieves atomic layer control and conformal deposition through successive, self-limiting surface reactions. It involves introducing chemical ...
(Nanowerk News) Inside an operating nuclear reactor, the environment is extreme, as reactor components are exposed to a combination of intense radiation and heat as well as chemically reactive coolant ...
