Angstrom Sciences offers state-of-the-art magnetrons for virtually any standard sputtering process. But we know that every application is different. That’s why we’ve developed a unique, modular approach that specifically adapts to your specifications.
Better Technology
Angstrom Sciences uses Finite Element Analysis (FEA) magnet modeling to custom profile magnetics to your specifications.
Whether you need high rate and throughput, high uniformity and target utilization, or a perfect balance between the two, we’ll make sure the Angstrom Advantage™ is optimized for your process.
More Capabilities
Angstrom Sciences designs, engineers, manufactures, and tests its magnetrons in-house. So we can guarantee the highest quality and control over your custom project.

Cylindrical Magnetrons have long been trusted in the glass coating industry to create uniform thin films while maximizing target utilization. Now, Angstrom Sciences has created a compact, lightweight, and economical cylindrical magnetron specifically designed to offer these same advantages to Flat Panel Display, Solar Cell, and Web Coating applications.
Patented Technology
Angstrom Sciences’ patented profiled magnet technology creates a deposition profile that is closer to normal between the source and the substrate. The improved deposition profile offers reduced debris accumulation on the chamber walls.
Additionally, Angstrom Sciences’ magnet array offers a higher magnetic field intensity, which allows the user to run the sputtering process at lower power to achieve typical deposition rates.

Dexter R-Mag™ Magnetron,U.S. Patent 5,865,970
UP TO FOUR TIMES MORE PRODUCTIVITY THROUGH ENHANCED MAGNETICS
Our patented quadrature design produces higher fields than conventional magnetrons thus lowering your costs.
>The higher fields allow for thicker targets. Thicker targets can drastically increase run time between target changes while saving thousands in target costs.
>Magnet assemblies are built with carefully matched magnets that are calibrated to within +/- 1%.
>Magnet assemblies can be adjusted in any location to obtain the desired uniformity profile along the length.
>Magnet assemblies are designed for direct exposure with the cooling water.
>Magnets are mechanically protected with SS cladding.
>Magnet bar is designed with SS to minimize corrosion.
>Turn around portion of the assembly is designed for simple replacement. This allows us to work with the end user to optimize the turnaround erosion for maximum target utilization. This saves time and money! The replaceable turnaround also allows the end user to quickly repair and replace this portion of the bar if it becomes damaged.
>Readily adjusted to run with the larger ID targets
>Each magnet bar is individually mapped and certified to meet the uniformity requirements.
>Optional: Unbalanced or balanced magnetrons
