VACT 2301 Thin Film Properties 1
Thin films have many desirable properties that can only be achieved through specialized material deposition processes. These properties can vary and are dependent on the many factors impacting the deposition process. In this course we explore mechanical, thermal and magnetic properties of materials. The physical vapor deposition process, a type of vacuum deposition method, is used to create different thin film samples which demonstrate these material properties. Characterization tools are used to measure the extent to which these material properties are present in the deposited material.
