Note that to date (May 2022) we have processes available for deposition of Al, Cr, Cu, Ge, Au, Ni, Nb, Pd, Pt, Ag, Ti, W and Ta as well as Ru. If your favorite metal is not available you are welcome to ask if we can buy a target and develop a recipe.

===Thickness measurement, deposition rate and process control===
Read about how the machine measures the thickness of the growing film using a quartz crystal monitor, how accurately you can control the rate/thickness, and other useful information about e-beam deposition here: [[/Good to know about the Temescal#Deposition rate and thickness measurement accuracy|Thickness, rate, process control]].
===Particulates in the films===
Read about optimizing film quality including how to minimize the number of  [[/Particulates in Temescal Au films|particulates in Au films in the Temescal]].
