Laurell Technologies WS-400 spin coater used to apply photoresist to the surface of a silicon wafer. Spin coating is a procedure used to deposit uniform thin films onto flat substrates. Usually a small amount of coating material in liquid form is applied on the center of the substrate, which is either spinning at low speed or not spinning at all.
New ship being prepared for launch, showing fresh anti-fouling paint Ship hull being cleaned of fouling in drydock. Anti-fouling paint is a specialized category of coatings applied as the outer (outboard) layer to the hull of a ship or boat, to slow the growth of and facilitate detachment of subaquatic organisms that attach to the hull and can affect a vessel's performance and durability.
There are four basic parameters that are involved in spin coating: solution viscosity, solid content (density), angular speed, and spin time. [13] A range of thicknesses can be achieved by spin coating. Most commonly the thicknesses range from 1-200 μm. The main properties that affect the thickness of the film are viscosity and spin speed.
A schematic of a typical slot-die coating system. Slot-die coating equipment is available in a variety of configurations and form factors. However, the vast majority of slot-die processes are driven by a similar set of common core components. These include: A fluid reservoir to store the main supply of coating fluid for the system; A pump to ...
Dip coating is similar to spin coating in that a liquid precursor or sol-gel precursor is deposited on a substrate, but in this case the substrate is completely submerged in the solution and then withdrawn under controlled conditions. By controlling the withdrawal speed, the evaporation conditions (principally the humidity, temperature) and the ...
The first self-cleaning glass was based on a thin film titania coating. [3] The film can be applied by spin coating of organo-titanate chelated precursor (for example titanium iso-tetrapropoxide chelated by acetylacetone), followed by heat treatment at elevated temperatures to burn the organic residues and to form the anatase phase.
Other common names for it include "clear sight", "spin window", "Kent Screen" and "rotating windshield wiper". Clear view screens were patented in 1917 by Samuel Augustine de Normanville and Leslie Harcourt Kent as a stand-alone pillar-mounted screen, [ 1 ] with later patents for telescope and optics covers, followed by the more familiar ships ...
The coating had its first sea trials in 1940, on U-11, a Type IIB. [1] [5] U-67, a Type IX, was the first operational U-boat with this coating. [2] After its first war patrol, it put in at Wilhelmshaven probably sometime in April 1941 where it was given the coating. The coating covered the conning tower and sides of the U-boat, but not to the deck.
