Ion Beam Etching (IBE) Solutions

Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is an advanced deposition technique that allows for ultra-thin films of a few nanometres to be deposited in a precisely controlled way. Not only does ALD provide excellent thickness control and uniformity but 3D structures can be covered with a conformal coating for high-aspect-ratio structures.

Key Benefits of IBE

  • Self-limiting atomic layer-by-layer growth
  • Highly-conformal coating
  • Low pin-hole and particle levels
  • High-quality oxides with low damage
  •  Low-temperature process for sensitive substrates
  • Metals with low nucleation delay
  • Wide range of materials and processes
