Sputtering: Process, Types, and Uses. Sputtering is a physical process in which atoms in a solid-state (target) are released and pass into the gas phase by bombardment with energetic ions (mainly noble gas ions). Sputtering is usually understood as the sputter deposition, a high vacuum-based coating technique belonging to the group of PVD ...

Thin films 1. PRESENTED BY: NISCHITH B S THIN FILMS 2. Define Thin Films! A thin film is a layer of materialranging from fractions of a nanometer (monolayer) to several micrometers in thickness. Thin film technology is a "self organizing" structural evolution. Ex:In ancient times, people already knew how to beat gold into a thin film (< 1 μm thickness) with hammers and knew how use …

Ball mill is a high-energy mill process especially used for an energy-intensive process like mechanical alloying, mechanochemistry, or mechanical activation. Planetary ball mill is used to determine the dependence of process efficiency using milling parameters such as ball size and number, mill geometry, and velocity of the rotating parts.
