Deposition


The act of applying a thin film to a surface is thin-film deposition – any technique for depositing a thin film of material onto a substrate or onto previously deposited layers. “Thin” is a relative term, but most deposition techniques control layer thickness within a few tens of nanometresMolecular beam epitaxy allows a single layer ofatoms to be deposited at a time.
