==Sputtering of Nickel Vanadium==


Nickel Vanadium may be sputter deposited in either Sputter-system (Lesker) or PVD co-sputter/evaporation
Nickel Vanadium may be sputter deposited in the Sputter-system (Lesker) and the Sputter-system Metal-Oxide (PC1). The following pages show both process parameters and data on surface roughness of the deposited films:


* [[/Sputtering of NiV in Lesker|Sputtering of NiV in Sputter-System (Lesker)]]
* [[/Sputtering of NiV in Sputter-System Metal-Oxide (PC1)|Sputtering of NiV in Sputter-System Metal-Oxide (PC1)]]
* [[/Sputtering of NiV in Wordentec|Sputtering of NiV in Wordentec]] (tool now decommissioned, but results are of general interest)


In the chart below you can compare the different deposition equipment.
