A selection of evaporation sources in our cleanroom. Evaporation is a thin film deposition technique where the material is heated up to above its melting point in vacuum, typically using an electron beam. The molten material evaporates and is redeposited on your samples which are positioned near the source. Common materials that can be deposited using this technique include gold, copper, titanium, platinum, nickel, iron, silicon dioxide, and carbon.
