What is sputter?

Sputtering is a physical vapor deposition (PVD) technique used to deposit thin films onto a substrate. It involves bombarding a target material (the source) with energetic ions, typically noble gas ions like argon. This bombardment causes atoms from the target to be ejected and then deposited onto the substrate, forming a thin film. Sputtering is widely used in various industries, including microelectronics, optics, and materials science, for applications such as depositing conductive layers, protective coatings, and optical films.

What other technologies are related to sputter?

sputter Competitor Technologies

PECVD (Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) is a competitor to sputtering for thin film deposition. While sputtering uses physical means, PECVD uses chemical reactions activated by plasma to deposit thin films. Both technologies are used for similar applications, but offer different advantages in terms of film quality, deposition rate, and material compatibility.
