ANGSTROM SCIENCES, INC.

Angstrom Sciences' circular magnetrons have become recognized as the new standard of the sputtering industry, because in addition to the advanced features of the Angstrom Advantage™, they offer a host of other performance advantages as well. Versatile, Compact Design Their compact design makes our circular magnetrons ideal for any new or retrofit application, including the most complex cluster assemblies for the smallest vacuum chambers. Total Power Compatibility Low-impedence heads provide RF, DC, mid-frequency DC, pulsed DC, and microwave power compatibility.Circular Magnetron External Standard Fittings We use ISO NW standard fittings, as well as Conflat® metal seal flanges. All utilities are maintained at atmosphere and accessed through standard O-ring compression fittings for easy installation in any vacuum system. Full Range of Sizes Circular magnetron sources are available from 1" (25mm) through 16"(406mm) inch target diameters.

Advances in High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) or High Impact Power Magnetron Sputtering have long been pursued by modifying power supply systems that can deliver short bursts of power densities to a sputtering target. Angstrom Sciences has developed a series of circular sputtering cathodes capable of sustaining continuous power densities greater than 1500 Watts/in2. Angstrom Sciences’ high power pulsed magnetron sputtering cathodes incorporate two additional cooling channels in the anode body and stem tube to maintain optimum cooling during process operation. The magnetic arrangement within the HPP design is specially optimized for high power, magnetic applications. High Power Pulsed circular magnetrons are directly cooled and available in 4", 6", 8" and 10" outer diameters.

Angstrom Sciences offers state-of-the-art magnetrons for virtually any standard sputtering process. But we know that every application is different. That’s why we’ve developed a unique, modular approach that specifically adapts to your specifications. Cylindrical Magnetrons have long been trusted in the glass coating industry to create uniform thin films while maximizing target utilization. Now, Angstrom Sciences has created a compact, lightweight, and economical cylindrical magnetron specifically designed to offer these same advantages to Flat Panel Display, Solar Cell, and Web Coating applications. Custom Designs Complete assemblies are available from 3" to 6" in target diameter. Cylindrical Magnetron Side Mount Angstrom Economical and Fully-Compatible Investment The ONYX-Revolution™ utilizes a universal and cost-effective magnet design with customized turnarounds to fit any target type. And, it is designed with off-the-shelf components for low-cost, long-term investment.

As more industries discover the speed, controllability, and bottom-line benefits of magnetron sputtering, Angstrom Sciences is developing tools to maximize the output of these larger, faster manufacturing processes. Broader Solutions For those who have to coat extremely broad substrates or have to achieve extremely high throughput, linear magnetrons offer the perfect solution. ONYX Linear Magnetron Patented Advantages Angstrom Sciences’ linear magnetrons incorporate our fully-encapsulated patented profiled NdFeB rare earth magnets and turbulent water flow to provide unparalleled performance. Standard Fittings We use ISO NW standard fittings, as well as Conflat® metal seal flanges. All utilities are maintained at atmosphere and accessed through standard O-ring compression fittings for easy installation in any vacuum system. Total Power Compatibility Low-impedance heads provide RF, DC, mid-frequency DC, pulsed DC, and microwave power compatibility.
