The Foundations of Vacuum Coating Technology, Second Edition, is a review of the developments that have led to the wide variety of applications of vacuum coating technologies that serves as a starting point for more in-depth surveys of past and recent work in all aspects of vacuum coating. This second edition includes a historical context and review of both High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) and Pulsed Laser Deposition that were added to bring the newest techniques being utilized in VCT. It is a must have for materials scientists and engineers working with vacuum coating in new technologies or applications. A section of acronyms for vacuum coating and glossary of terms at the end of the book are critical additions to the information every reader needs. Clearly sets out the basis of formation of vacuum coating methodsProvides a review of the applications of the various vacuum coating technologiesIncludes a discussion of High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HiPIMS), Pulsed Laser Deposition and Arc Vaporization and Deposition techniques INDICE: 1.
