Different Types of Metal Deposition
Nanostructured thin films have been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of modern electronics and technology. They form one of the cornerstones of key devices in virtually any market that comes to mind, from consumer electronics to ultra-resolution microscopy. Each of these diverse application areas is united by a need for absolute precision at the smallest possible scales. Metallic thin films may range from a few micrometres (μm) down to fractions of a nanometre (nm) in thickness, which puts a unique pressure on achieving uniform morphologies and high stability. Critical quality parameters for thin films are based mainly on the metal deposition technique. What is Metal Deposition? Metal deposition describes any method where a metallic starter material is dissolved in a solvent or evaporated under vacuum conditions then precipitated on a target substrate. Here we aim to briefly explore some of
