Joint Development Programs

By Arradiance

From a coating on demand to a film developed with you. Not every job is a known film on a known substrate. When the process doesn't exist yet, or an existing one needs to hit a harder target, our foundry runs it as a Joint Development Program: Arradiance scientists working alongside your team, on the same GEMStar and PRIME systems we build, to take a coating from idea to a repeatable result. The work spans a range: - Coat to your spec. Deposit a specified film at a target thickness on your parts (the standard rapid-turn service). - Improve device performance. Tune the film, interface, or process to move a real device metric, not just the coating itself. - Develop new films or film stacks. Engineer multilayers and nanolaminates for a target electrical, optical, or barrier property. - Develop new chemistries. Qualify and develop new precursors and ALD/MLD processes for materials that aren't on the shelf. Arradiance has co-developed functional nanofilms across microchannel plates, solid-oxide fuel-cell and supercapacitor electrodes, optical coatings, and superconducting nanolaminates, several protected by issued patents. Tell us the property you need, and we'll tell you whether it's a run or a program.
