Nanoparticle Generator & Thin Film Coating

XSC

Large Area Thin Film Coating

Nanovie Xano Spray Coating (XSC) fabricates thin films with nanoparticles generated by Metal Xano and others.

>Large

Without the use of a vacuum system, XSC is capable of fabricating large sized thin films, 20 X 20 cm or larger.

>Simple

Joystick control and LCD interface without the need of an external computer ensure simple operation, while programmable coating procedures produce reliable results.

Controllable low-temperature annealing during coating reduces undesired layer interaction, which improves the quality for coating multiple layers and coating with mixed nanoparticles.

>annealed spray coating

The example shows the pristine state of the gold thin film coated by XSC (left) becomes more continuous after being annealed at 250 ̊C (middle) but loses its ideal properties after over-annealing at 350 ̊C (right).
