New thin-film processes for the production of high-performance electroceramic membranes

  The first func­tional test of the new INP magne­tron sput­te­ring reactor for the depo­si­tion of elec­tro­cer­amic thin films was carried out on 19 June 2020. In the reactor, a closed-field unba­lanced magne­tron sput­te­ring tech­nique can be used to deposit complex metal oxides with a perovs­kite struc­ture (e.g. barium cerium zirco­nate) on the tubular substrates…
