Magnetron Film Sputtering

We can deposit any kind of metal (including metal- and metal-nitrides) on a broad range of different substrates. We tightly control all aspects of the process to deposit precious metals or complex stacks onto thin polymeric substrates. Novel developments, such as our breakthrough PreciseAU™ technology, use 30% less gold while achieving the same surface resistivity levels — creating significant cost savings while maintaining performance.  For a full list of our capabilities, talk to one of our experts today.
