Thin Films

EVAPORATED THIN FILMS AND COATINGS

Lebow Company deposits electron beam evaporated thin films for numerous applications including impurity injection targets of a wide range of materials. Films and targets from a few Angstroms to over 10 microns, in single and multi-layers, have been supplied to laboratories worldwide. The following price list covers the most often requested films and targets on microscope slides, 2 inch nominal squares (1.925 inch, 49 mm) or on most customer supplied substrates.

The price list covers cleaning and coating of up to 12 customer supplied substrates within a 200 x 195mm area and a Cr undercoat if requested. Substrates of 2 inch x 2 inch nominal (49mm), 12 per lot, 1 inch x 3 inch microscope slides, 12 per lot, or 2 inch x 3 inch microscope slides, 8 per lot are supplied at no charge. Other substrate materials can also be supplied and we would be pleased to quote your special requirements. We are able to coat cylinders, rods, the edges of discs, wires (including microwires) and plastics.

In addition to the run fee below, add a set-up fee of $100.00 per material (except Al, Au and Cr).
