Thin film application notes

• What are thin films?
• Vacuum for thin films deposition
• Thin film growth
• Sputter deposition for thin films
• Reactive sputter deposition for compound thin films
• Optical Coating Design
• Thin Film Characterization

If you make, use, or buy thin films then we can help you with :-

• Thin films Training
• Thin films Trouble shooting
• Technical Marketing (thin films papers and articles)
• Thin films process optimization
• Thin films Product development
• Patents (assessment and creation)

We provide thin films advice, support and training to a wide range of international customers. They range from vacuum metallizers to ITO sputter coaters, from optical coating manufacturers to architectural glass coaters, we also support a range of equipment manufacturers. Typically for larger thin film companies we provide staff training while smaller thin film companies use Alacritas for technical support, troubleshooting and thin film process development.

We have expertise in many areas of physical vapor deposition. Particular expertise in sputter deposition technology and sputter deposition of optical coatings.

In the UK we also act as agents for associated thin film equipment, namely Sputter power supplies and quartz crystal, optical and laser end point monitors.

Sputter power supplies

  - 1kW to 160kW
  - magnetron sputtering, bias and arc applications.
  - DC, pulsed DC and AC.

quartz crystal, optical and laser end point monitors

  - Quartz crystal monitors
  - Optical Monitors.
  - Laser Endpoint detectors.
