What had long been considered as a vision of the future is now a reality – devices can detect their surroundings as if they were human senses and interact with them. Sensors close the gap to the digital world. Combined with appropriate software, smart devices and robots, for example, can see, hear, smell or feel and above all “intuitively understand” their environment, thereby simplifying our lives. The decisive factor here is the interpretation and linking of information from different sensors.

With the advancing of material science, nowadays the thin film deposition technology is developing quickly and has a crucial role in our everyday lives. Thin film deposition is the act of applying a thin film on the surface of another material. It is used in the manufacturing of devices such as computers and thin film transistors. It also finds applications in the production of semiconductors as well as in simple everyday objects as a typical household mirror.
