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

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
AlxCr1-xN coatings have excellent mechanical properties and oxidation resistance and are therefore of high application value in a variety of industrial applications. In recent years, the effects of various deposition parameters (such as partial pressure, gas mixture or temperature) on the sputtering process have been studied, but there has been little research on the influence...Continue Reading
Transparent conductive films have many applications, and indium tin oxide films have received great attention in the glass manufacturing industry due to their excellent properties. However, the manufacturing process of the indium tin oxide film requires a higher temperature, which limits its application. In order to reduce this temperature, various “sintering agents” have been taken...Continue Reading
Physical vapor deposition (PVD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) are considered to be the most attractive surface coating technologies and have a wide range of applications in various industries. Let us compare these two methods in detail. Physical Vapor Deposition Chemical Vapor Deposition Definition Physical vapor deposition (PVD) is a series of vacuum deposition methods...Continue Reading
We have previously made a brief introduction of Five Sputter Coating Technologies, including unbalanced magnetron sputtering, radio frequency sputtering (RF sputtering), direct current magnetron sputtering (DC sputtering), mid-frequency alternating current magnetron sputtering (AC sputtering), and reactive magnetron sputtering. In this article, we are going to talk about direct current (DC) sputtering in detail. To begin...Continue Reading
