Thin-Film Deposition
Moore 175 offers the Suzuki Lab the ability to produce, in-house, a wide variety of thin-films via pulsed laser deposition (PLD) techniques. The Lambda Physik LPX 305i KrF excimer laser can be directed to three different chambers designed for the production of thin films. The vacuum chambers enable precise control of deposition parameters, and have a variety of capabilities, including RHEED for in-situ measurement and sputtering attachments for in-situ device production.
