Molybdenum silicide is particularly attractive for optical coatings because co-sputtering Mo with Si allows precise control of MoSi stoichiometry—and, in turn, the film’s refractive index at the design wavelength.

MoSi alloy can be deposited by DC co-sputtering in either Sputter-System Metal-Oxide (PC1) or Sputter-System Metal-Nitride (PC3)—collectively referred to as the Cluster Lesker. The process uses two 3-inch targets:
