Applied Microstructures ships MVD150 series

Aug. 17, 2006 – Applied MicroStructures, a San Jose, Calif., provider of molecular vapor deposition equipment and contract deposition services, announced it has delivered its first MVD150 automated production system to a leading global manufacturer of MEMS devices for use in the deposition of anti-stiction layers.

The company provides its systems for use in MEMS, nanobio, nanoimprinting, and hard disk applications and that they can reliably deposit precise and repeatable nano-coatings at low temperatures. Advanced design features include precise and conformal self-assembled monolayers on various substrates with operating costs that the company claims are lower than wet processing.

This week’s announcement follows the installation of MVD100 systems at 12 universities and 24 commercial facilities, according to the company.
