Industrial lasers

Description

Supply, delivery and commissioning of equipment for producing optical absorption amorphous silicon. The University intends to contract with Polygon Physics for the supply, delivery and commissioning of equipment for extreme performance optical coatings. The equipment will: — have multi ion sources system allowing co-evaporation up to 24 elements and multilayer deposition without vacuum breaking, — have extraction potentials for ion sources to be stable (i.e. no plasma discharge) up to 10 kV, — have must uniformity of sputtered thin films over 80mm diameter to be 2 % or better, prior to implementing planetary or rotational staging, — have a crystal monitor for in-situ measurement of film thickness. The system will be installed at University of Strathclyde John Anderson Campus, Glasgow, UK.
