Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD)

VT Vacuum, Bangalore

Description:

Pulse Laser Deposition (PLD) is a physical vapor deposition method for thin film growth. A high-energy laser ablates a target, generating a plasma plume of atoms, ions, and clusters. These species condense onto a substrate, forming a uniform thin film.

Spray Pyrolysis

HO-TH-04, HOLMARC - India

Description:

Spray pyrolysis is a method for depositing thin films by spraying precursor solutions onto a heated substrate. As the solvent evaporates, it leaves behind a thin film of the desired material. This system is widely used in materials science to create uniform coatings for various applications, including semiconductors and thin-film solar cells.
