University of Sheffield awarded a contract to Prevac Sp.

zo.o for a thin film deposition system as part of the Sir Henry Royce Institute for Materials.

The system enables exploration of new materials as homogeneous single layer films or multilayer stacks, with film thicknesses controllable to monolayer levels for ultra-thin film fabrication.

Initially targeted at high entropy metal alloys, amorphous/crystalline nanocomposite metallic coatings for wear and corrosion protection, magnetic thin films and multilayers, and electro-ceramic materials, with potential extension to external users through SHRI.

The contract value is £375,000.
