High Precision Deposition

Magnetron Sputter Deposition

Homogeneity: 99.9 % (6" diameter)
run-to-run stability: 99.9%
Performance of Mo/Si multilayers
Cu Ka reflectivity for d = 2.0 nm
R (Cu K
a) > 60%
EUV- range*: reflectivity for d = 6.82 nm:
R (l = 13.3 nm) = 70.1 %

Large-Area Pulsed Laser Deposition

Homogeneity: 99.5 % (80 mm x 40 mm)
run-to-run stability: 99.5 %
Cu Ka-reflectivity of a Ni/C-Multilayer
d = 3.0 nm:
R = 68 %

Application of PLD: In-side deposition of tubes*

Glass tubes
(I.D. ≈ 10 mm), in-side deposited with Au, Cu, Ni, Pd, brass, C
