Product innovation
Codex International’s new EPC © (Enhanced Process Control) process is an innovative manufacturing process that improves target performance, durability and deposit homogeneity.
Codex International has developed a new technology for manufacturing EPC© sputtering targets that optimizes the flow of materials and significantly improves their sputtering performance.
Our EPC© process allows a better control of crystalline orientations and grain size (especially for ferromagnetic materials). Sputtering targets manufactured using Codex International’s EPC© process have the following competitive advantages
– Minimize magnetic shunting
– Stabilize the plasma
– Improve thin film uniformity
– Increase thin film deposition rates and reduce cycle times.

[Nanophotonics] – Silver sawtooth creates valley-coherent light for nanophotonics 23 February 2020

Scientists at the University of Groningen used a silver sawtooth nanoslit array to produce valley-coherent photoluminescence in two-dimensional tungsten disulfide flakes at room temperature.
Until now, this could only be achieved at very low temperatures. Coherent light can be used to store or transfer information in quantum electronics. This plasmon-exciton hybrid device is promising for use in integrated nanophotonics (light-based electronics).
