Thin Film Centre

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.
