-Tungsten (W) can be deposited by e-beam evaporation and sputtering. However, in case of evaporation the precess generates a lot of heat (despite water cooling), and this means the pressure rises as the chamber is baking out. It is therefore not easy to deposit films much thicker than 50-60 nm. In the Temescal we stopped the deposition every 20 nm to let the pressure drop. Also, the rate needs to be low, to avoid overheating. Talk to staff when you want to deposit W (write to thinfilm@nanolab.dtu.dk). Sputtering can be used without any sufficient issues. In the chart below you can compare the deposition equipment.
