PLASMATERIALS, Inc., since 1987, has been supplying the Thin Film Industry with high quality planar and rotatable sputtering targets and evaporation materials for use in Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) equipment and related applications. These high purity materials are provided in nearly every element, alloy, and composition available on the periodic table along with custom compositions. These materials are well suited for industrial applications, laboratory processing, research and development applications, pilot production applications as well as full scale production. For use in the microelectronic, automotive, architectural glass, display, hard coating, semiconductor, optical, packaging, decorative, anti-corrosive, etc. coating applications. In addition, backing plates, e-beam starter sources and crucible liners are all available either "off the shelf" or through custom design. Plasmaterials, Inc. also offers metallic bonding services. The bonding process utilizes a proprietary process for affixing the target directly to the backing plate using low vapor pressure materials. These bonding materials provide the necessary mechanical strength, thermal and electrical conductivity while allowing differential expansion between the target and the backing plate. As a full service company, Plasmaterials, Inc. can provide all of your deposition materials needs.
