Thin Film Centre
Overview
The Thin Film Centre has been operating for ten years and
provides a unique service for industry in the research and development of deposition processes for thin films, design and fabrication of thin film products, characterisation of thin films and
the dissemination of information about the applications
of thin films.
The centre collaborates with a wide range of industries and applications including ophthalmics, optics, telecoms, flexible displays, bio engineering, energy generation, decorative and
barrier coatings for pharmaceutical and food products.
We have vast experience in working with Small to Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs) as well as established companies and we are currently running a Scottish Executive Expertise, Knowledge and Innovation Transfer (SEEKIT) programme with the aim to enhance Knowledge Transfer between Scottish based SMEs and the Thin Film Centre.
Expertise
The Thin Film Centre provides a unique service for industry and academia in the research and development of thin film properties and applications. The Centre is also interested in prototyping and smaller-scale production runs of existing and new thin film designs. Processes can be developed and transferred to even larger deposition chambers for large-scale production.
