There are several techniques for creating thin films, each with its unique advantages. Some of the most common methods are:
- Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD): Involves vaporizing a solid material and then depositing it onto a substrate. - Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): Uses chemical reactions to form a solid material on a substrate. - Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD): A method that allows for precise control of film thickness at the atomic level. - Spin Coating: A technique used mostly for creating uniform thin polymer films.
