 Thin Film Materials Technology: Sputtering of Compound Materials $195.00 An invaluable resource for industrial science and engineering newcomers to sputter deposition technology in thin film production applications, this book is rich in coverage of both historical developments and the newest experimental and technological information about ceramic thin films, a key technology for nano-materials in high-speed information applications and large-area functional coating such as automotive or decorative painting of plastic parts, among other topics. In seven concise chapters, the book thoroughly reviews basic thin film technology and deposition processes, sputtering processes, structural control of compound thin films, and microfabrication by sputtering.  Glow Discharge Processes: Sputtering and Plasma Etching $206.95 I wholeheartly recomend this book to someone just starting out in plasma processing. It is THE best introductory book on the subject. However, if you have read the literature and have been exposed to the subject for a while, you will find that the book is very basic and a little outdated. Chapman used to be the VP of Technology for a Plasma Etch firm when he wrote the 1st edition. Now he is (and has for some time been) President of a vacuumn diagnostics company. He really has not been updating this. With that caveat, if the other books/literature is "over your head" - go to this book for simply to understand explanations of so called "low temperature" plasma phenemena. |
