Advanced Energy in the Windy City – An Update from SVC TechCon 2024
Juni 11, 2024
By Kyle Moore
Every year the Society of Vacuum Coaters (SVC) – a non-profit, international, professional organization primarily devoted to coating and surface finishing using vacuum processes – brings together industry professionals, researchers and academics for SVC TechCon, the world’s largest technical expo for vacuum coating.

Dynamic Reverse Pulsing – What About the Anode?
Dezember 04, 2023
By Gayatri Rane
A previous AE blog, Dynamic Reverse Pulsing – What About Duty Cycle?, discussed reactive sputter deposition of insulating thin films in large-area coaters, describing the benefits of using the Dynamic Reverse Pulse (DRP) power-delivery mode over the bipolar (BP) mode of dual magnetron sputtering. In DRP mode , dual targets are bipolar pulsed against an explicit anode and the duty cycle can be varied so that the polarity is positive on the target for a shorter time during pulsing. This allows clearing of charge build-up on the targets. In our studies, DRP mode showed increased deposition rate and reduced substrate temperature when compared to similar depositions with the BP mode.

CT Imaging: Navigating the Complex Power Needs of Current and Next Generation CT Systems
Oktober 09, 2023
Computed Tomography (CT) is a computerized imaging technique used in radiology. A rapidly rotating X-ray beam and detector are used to generate cross-sectional images – so-called slices – that form the volumetric and very detailed internal image of the body.

Studies of Dynamic Reverse Pulsing and Bipolar Reactive Sputtering of Silicon Oxide Films with No Detectable Inclusion of Anode Material
Oktober 13, 2020
In our recent blog post, we demonstrated how silicon dioxide thin films can be sputtered with a reliably high quality and rate in an inline coating machine at our Customer Solutions Lab in Karlstein, Germany. Comparisons were made for films sputtered at a high argon flow, and thus higher-pressure, during deposition and a low argon flow and thus a lower deposition pressure.
