Substrate Thermal Heating Rates as a Function of Magnetically Controlled Plasma Impedance on Rotary Cathodes Members Public

Presented by Patrick Morse, Sputtering Components Inc. The thermal budget for web based polymer substrates is a critical parameter to consider whenever depositing sputtered thin films. Electron heating and bombardment of high energy particles are commonly thought to be the primary source of substrate heating in a rotary magnetron sputtering

Roll-to-Roll Processing Inflections for the Display & IoT Industry Members Public

Presented by Neil A. Morrison, Applied Materials Web Coating GmbH Next generation consumer electronic devices, including wearables are placing an ever increasing emphasis on form factor. This has resulted in an increase in the number of polymeric films used in their construction. As most of these polymeric materials are initially

Maximizing the Potential of Rotatable Magnetron Sputter Sources for Web Coating Applications Members Public

Presented by Dermot Monaghan, Gencoa Magnetron sputtering is the most widely used technique for creating a flux of vapour for the vacuum deposition industries. The flux of vapour is generated by a magnetically confined plasma over the ‘target’ surface which ‘sputters’ the target material (‘target’ is the name given to

Control of the Barrier Properties of PLA by Means of a Biobased Plasma Polymer Coating Members Public

Presented by S. Ligot, Chimie des Interactions Plasma-Surface Polylactic acid (PLA), derived from renewable resources, is a (bio)degradable polymer accepted as a good alternative to conventional polymers for packaging applications. Nevertheless, as for other polymers, it presents too high water and gas permittivity leading to its uncontrolled hydrolysis and

Anode Layer Linear Ion Source for Roll-to-Roll Process from 300 mm to 1550 mm Members Public

Presented by Seunghun Lee, Korea Institute of Materials Science Roll-to-roll (RTR) process requires a linear surface treatment source in various processes such as pre-treatment, etching, and deposition. For high speed and large width processes the linear source should have superior characteristics that can be applied to 100~300 m/mim

New Approaches to achieve spectral information with Lab-like Certainty in Inline Process Monitoring Members Public

Presented by Peter Lamparter, Carl Zeiss Mecroscopy GmbH Gaining spectral information with Inline Monitoring is crucial in Web Coating for process and quality optimization. Differing from laboratory measurements the accuracy of results from Inline Monitoring may be disturbed by a number of influences due to the production environment, e.g.
