ALD Advantages
Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) stands out for one reason: control. The most significant advantages of thin film deposition via Atomic Later Deposition over other methods, are manifest in four distinct areas – film conformality, low temperature processing, stoichiometric control, and inherent film quality associated with the self-limiting, and self-assembled nature of the ALD mechanism ALD is exceptionally effective at coating surfaces that exhibit ultra high aspect ratio topographies, as well as surfaces requiring multilayer films with good quality interfaces technology. This thin-film process builds materials one atomic layer at a time, delivering unmatched uniformity and sub-nanometer precision, even on complex 3D structures. That level of accuracy makes ALD a critical technology for advanced semiconductor manufacturing, flexible electronics, and materials research.

PLD Systems
Pulsed Laser Deposition
Is a versatile thin film deposition technique. A pulsed laser (~20 ns pulse width) rapidly evaporates a target material forming a thin film that retains target composition. This unique ability of stoichiometeric transfer of target composition into the film was realized first by the research team led by Dr. Venkatesan at Bell Communications Research, NJ, USA, nearly 30 years ago while depositing high temperature superconducting (YBa2Cu3O7) thin films. Since then, PLD has become the preferred deposition technique where ever thin films of complex material compositions are considered. Another unique feature of PLD is its ability for rapid prototyping of materials. The energy source (pulsed laser) being outside the deposition chamber, facilitates a large dynamic range of operating pressures (10-10 Torr to 500 Torr) during material synthesis. By controlling the deposition pressure and substrate temperature and using relatively small target sizes, a variety of atomically controlled nano-structures and interfaces can be prepared with unique functionalities.
