Copper can be deposited by e-beam evaporation or sputtering at Nanolab. In the chart below you can compare the different deposition equipment. Further down you will find some results of studies on Cu deposition processes.
Copper can be deposited by e-beam evaporation or sputtering at Nanolab. We have also recently developed a process with thermal evaporation (2024). In the chart below you can compare the different deposition equipment. Further down you will find some results of studies on Cu deposition processes.

! Comment
|As of March 2020, Cu has not yet been deposited in this machine.
Please contact the Thin Film group to develop a process.
