Market Definition
ALD equipment refers to a specialized set of machinery and components designed for executing the atomic layer deposition process. ALD is a thin-film deposition technique that enables precise and controlled growth of thin films at the atomic or molecular level. ALD equipment facilitates the sequential and self-limiting exposure of a substrate to precursor gases, resulting in the formation of thin, conformal, and uniform layers on the substrate surface.
Researchers, engineers, and manufacturers in various fields utilize ALD equipment to deposit thin films for a wide range of applications, such as more than Moore, R&D facilities, and more Moore applications. Additionally, ALD equipment is also used in the medical and energy industries, conventional optics, and coating applications. The precise and controlled nature of ALD makes it a fundamental tool for achieving desired material properties and functionalities in nanotechnology and advanced material sciences.
