Solutions View all

Thermal evaporation

Thermal evaporation is a straightforward means of thin film deposition with materials being heated to evaporation temperatures via a resistively heated support.

Glovebox deposition

Glovebox Deposition integrated MiniLab PVD systems for metals, inorganics and organics thin-film deposition with sample handling in inert environments.

Glovebox soft-etching

Moorfield introduce their glovebox-integrated MiniLab 026 “soft-etching” tools for researchers working on graphene and 2D materials that require sample handling in inert atmospheres.

Glovebox annealing

Glovebox Annealing Integrated MiniLab systems with annealing hardware for substrate heating under controlled conditions, and transfer to/from inert atmospheres.

Glovebox integrated systems

Glovebox-compatible MiniLab systems for physical vapour deposition (PVD), etching and annealing processes.

E-beam evaporation

During electron beam evaporation (or E-Beam evaporation), evaporant materials are heated to high temperatures through bombardment by high-energy electron streams.
