Aerosol deposition (AD) methods have emerged as a transformative approach for fabricating both thin and thick films entirely at room temperature. By utilising aerosolised powders propelled onto ...

Layer deposition techniques have emerged as indispensable methods for constructing ultrathin films with precise control over thickness, composition and microstructure. Methods such as atomic layer ...

In this interview, discover how ATLANT 3D's DALP technology is revolutionizing thin-film deposition, enabling rapid prototyping and advanced material applications in nanofabrication. Can you please ...

Why are thin films essential to so many technologies? Our new eBook breaks it down—where they matter, how they work, and what ...

A research team, led by Professor Joonki Suh in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and the Graduate School of Semiconductor Materials and Devices Engineering at UNIST, has made a ...

Thin film technology focuses on the deposition and analysis of functional material layers on a substrate. These layers are essential building blocks in modern devices, like the microchips found in ...

The laser wavelength, pulse duration, and fluence (energy density) significantly influence the ablation process and the resulting plasma plume. Shorter wavelengths and higher fluences generally lead ...

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) originated from atomic layer epitaxy, which was introduced in 1970 and initially used in electroluminescent displays. It rapidly revolutionized semiconducting ...

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, ...

A trio of NETL (National Energy Technology Laboratory) scientists recently released a paper entitled “Metal-organic framework thin films as versatile chemical sensing materials,” which is considered ...
