SKU#: AN-AT410

Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is a powerful thin-film deposition technique. Compared to traditional Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), ALD allows even higher quality surface layer with nearly pinhole-free, excellent uniformity and conformal (coating and backside, filling holes even in porous substrates). These advantages are related to its controllable process. The whole process is continuous and self-limiting, which means the material in the chamber is slowly deposited by a precursor separately in single atomic layer at a time and the steps are repeated until achieving desired thickness. It is widely used in electronic, biomedical, photovoltaic and other applications.

MSE Supplies offers the Benchtop Atomic Layer Deposition System AT410 from Anric Technologies. 

The AT410 is the most cost-effective thermal ALD tool on the market with customizable chucks/platen of chambers (for 3D parts). It is specially designed for simple operation and installation with a focus on research and development labs and metrology markets, where small size and cost effectiveness are the largest concerns.

AT410 has fast cycling capability (up to 1.2nm/min Al2O3) and high exposure, deep penetration processing available. It has smallest footprint on market (2.5 sq ft), bench top installation and cleanroom compatible.
