What is Magnetron Sputtering?

Magnetron Sputtering

Posted on

Magnetron sputtering is a plasma-based technique for physical vapor deposition (or PVD) coating that creates dense films with good adhesion. It is excellent for depositing materials with high melting points that cannot be evaporated, and it has the highest scalability of any PVD type.

Magnetron sputtering provides excellent precision in film thickness and density of film coatings, making it ideal for many metallic or insulating coatings with demanding optical or electrical properties.

In this video, we explain the process of magnetron sputtering and its benefits in thin film deposition.
