In order to protect some deposited materials from reacting with air or water vapor, they are usually immersed in low-viscosity (hydrocarbon) mineral oil during storage and shipment. Before installing these composition materials shipped in oil into the vacuum system, we must use solvents to remove these oils. The choice of solvents is based on the premise...Continue Reading
Optical coatings are widely used to change the reflectivity of the lens surface, from glasses to high-power laser applications. The core technology of femtosecond laser coating is that its coating has the characteristics of low dispersion and high damage threshold. This article talks about three commonly used sputter coating techniques, and introduces the physical principles...Continue Reading

Titanium can be alloyed with iron, aluminum, vanadium, and molybdenum to produce strong, lightweight alloys for aerospace (jet engines, missiles, and spacecraft), military, industrial processes (chemicals and petrochemicals, desalination plants, pulp, and paper), automotive, marine, human implants, and other applications. In addition to low density and high specific strength, another important advantage of titanium alloy...Continue Reading
Electron Beam Evaporation – Definition Electron beam evaporation, or E-beam evaporation, is a type of physical vapor deposition (PVD) technique, which directly heats the evaporation material (usually pellets) by using an electron beam under vacuum, and transports the vaporized material to the substrate to form a film. Electron Beam Evaporation – Working Processes Electron beam evaporation...Continue Reading
