Denton's 40-plus years of thin film R&D, equipment manufacturing, and in-house coating services make us the logical choice as your partner to bring it all together: comprehensive experience, a full range of equipment, complete technical support, and total dedication to your needs. Looking for development of a proprietary coating process? Searching for a vacuum deposition system that can keep pace with the demands of today's fast-paced thin film production environment? Denton has an extensive "library" of thin film processes and a willingness to adapt them to meet specific development and production needs with maximum efficiency. Electron beam deposition, thermal evaporation, confocal or parallel sputtering, ion-assisted deposition, and PECVD are just some of the processes available. Denton systems are used daily to produce coatings on substrates as small as microscopy samples and as large as telescope optics. Sophisticated automation for system operation, process control, and optical monitoring are routinely incorporated into Denton systems. These systems are designed to turn the most highly specialized coating into a routine production procedure.
