supplies in racks in the background. This equipment includes but is
not limited to planar and rotatable dual magnetron sputtering
(DMS), and has plasma etch pre-cleaning capability. Various
substrate sizes from small experimental coupons (e.g. glass,
sapphire, silicon and more) up to 500x600 mm2 rectangular sheets
(e.g. glass, plexiglass, plastic, metal and more) can be utilized.

For Advanced Energy, Germany provides an ideal location for its
new high-tech lab – not only for its renown as a plasma and
coatings technology leader, but also for its geographic convenience
for international customers. This lab augments AE’s growing R&D
capabilities, including the recently announced partnership with
Grenzebach GmbH’s demo lab in Hamlar, Germany.
“We are proud to share our expertise with esteemed industry
leaders,” said Bruce Fries, vice president, advanced material
processing, Advanced Energy. “As new thin films serve to change the
industry, we remain committed to developing exceptional plasma
solutions. With over 30 years’ experience, our solutions offer
tremendous benefits for a wide range of applications in nearly
every industry, from automotive and aviation to health care,
entertainment and construction. The lab’s focus is plasma-based
thin film coatings for commercial electronics applications, optical
coatings, flat panel display development and more. Our highly
secured facility, well-trained staff and advanced capabilities
through modern equipment investment, will allow us to continue to
build long-term R&D relationships that will shape the thin film
industries for years to come.”
Fries added, “We would also like to welcome Gayatri Rane, Ph.D.
and Philipp Dürrenfeld, Ph.D. to the lab's operations team. They
join AE as research engineers with key expertise in magnetron and
reactive sputtering, and materials analysis of resulting thin films
deposited for a variety of coating applications. Rounding out AE's
staff of strong power supply field application engineers, this
additional scientific talent will work directly with our customers,
facilitating the development of next level of plasma-based thin
film coatings for their wide range of products.”
To address current market needs, Advanced Energy has developed
advanced plasma technologies that provide stable, reliable,
precision process power with the repeatability essential for
today’s thin film production. From advances in layer stacks to
increases in coater productivity and uptime through predictive
analytics using PowerInsight by Advanced Energy™, AE’s solutions
offer an ever-growing portfolio of advantages including higher
deposition rates and film quality, quick, stable delivery even at
high power levels, increased film value and reduced cost of
ownership.
