Inside Sputtering Chamber

Northwestern University
Customer Spotlight

PVD has worked in support of Nortwestern University's prestigious Pulsed Laser Deposition Facility over the years, supplying one custom deposition system and enhancing it to meet the emerging needs of academic research, adding a chamber, custom targets, and variable shutter to broaden the range of materials they're able to deposit. Now at work on a second system, PVD is happy to support Northwestern's important research.

"It’s not a situation where the supplier sells you something and says ‘see ya later,’ but rather ‘let us see if we can make this work better for you.’ PVD isn’t a 'here today for the sale, gone tomorrow for the service' type of company." 
Bruce Buchholz, Northwestern University

Carbice
Customer Spotlight

Carbice is advancing heat management for electronics and components to meet durability and safety requirements. PVD worked with Carbice to build a custom deposition system that has helped to fuel their rapid growth.

“We’ve established a deep trust and confidence in PVD. You need to have trust in this type of relationship. PVD doesn’t just assemble tools. They understand the process.”
Baratunde Cola, CEO/Founder

Pulsed Laser Deposition Systems

Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) Systems use a laser beam to vaporize a solid target material in order to produce a thin film with exactly the same chemical composition as the original target material. The PLD process enables the deposition of many materials over a wide range of background gas compositions and pressures.
