Create engineered nanostructures and sculpted thin films using the Intlvac Nanochrome II deposition system configured for glancing-angle growth. Glancing Angle Deposition is an advanced thin-film technique that exploits high angles of incidence and ballistic shadowing effects of evaporant species to form self-assembled micro- and nanostructures. By controlling the deposition angle and substrate motion, unique columnar or sculpted morphologies can be engineered, enabling tunable optical, magnetic, and surface properties. GLAD is increasingly used in photonics, plasmonics, and sensor applications — and Intlvac’s deposition systems provide the precision geometry control needed to realize these complex structures.
