Wolfgang Diehl, Fraunhofer Institute for Surface Engineering and Thin Films IST, Germany ([email protected]), SVC President Welcome from the Program Chairs This year’s TechCon again demonstrates how The Society of Vacuum Coaters connects research with production and innovation with business in a unique way. Across all technical sessions, you will find a mix of basic and applied research alongside ideas and tools focused on transitioning research results into production. This will be complemented by a topical symposium, a variety of business-related topics, a dedicated product session, and numerous technology forums. The technical program is enhanced by our unique networking opportunities, a multi-faceted education program, and the largest technology exhibit of its kind, creating the ideal environment for learning about the latest research, industry trends, and making the right connections to develop your business. Silicon Valley, the home of many of the world’s largest high-tech corporations and thousands of startup companies, is the ideal location for this year’s Symposium on Coating Technologies for the Interconnected Age. The Symposium will highlight how capabilities within the SVC community relate to advancing mobility, durability and performance of mobile electronics. Importantly, this broad topic encompasses almost all of the core technology areas within the SVC and so, in addition to a daily Keynote Presentation, nearly every session will highlight a Symposium-related talk, and the subject will be covered in focus sessions, tutorials, and forums. In addition to symposium-related presentations, our traditional sessions are filled with the latest developments in areas of vital importance to the vacuum coating industry. For the industrial practitioner, we offer a number of sessions focused on business topics and products, including the Vendor Innovators Showcase, along with Meet the Experts Forums and Technology Breakfast round-table discussions. As always, our Heuréka! Session focuses on recent developments that warrant public discussion, in a relaxed evening environment with refreshments provided by our TechCon Gold Sponsors. Our Poster Session will be jump-started with a series of brief, oral “executive summaries” to enhance the dialogue with the poster authors. Whether you are contributing to the program with a presentation, attending the conference to see the latest products and developments in coating technology, or networking with technology and industry experts, we look forward to “connecting with you” at the 2015 SVC TechCon.

Sugerman Memorial Award was established in 1992 to commemorate the enduring efforts of Nat Sugerman (1922-1991) in founding, nurturing, and supporting the Society of Vacuum Coaters. 2015 Nathaniel Sugerman Award Recipient Award Citation: For his leadership in the optical coatings industry, for championing connections between research and manufacturing, and his dedicated service to both the SVC and the SVC Foundation. James W. (Jim) Seeser was born in the Missouri Ozarks, where he worked his way through school as a newspaper carrier. He attended Drury College in Springfield, MO, and received a PhD in Nuclear Physics from the University of Missouri in Columbia, MO. He and his wife Judy have one son and two granddaughters, all now living in St. Louis, MO. Being incurably curious and a life-long student, Jim was unable to transition immediately into the real world, so he first taught physics and computer science at Hope College in Holland, MI. There he helped establish an undergraduate research laboratory using a kit-built 2 MeV Van de Graaff accelerator. Finding living on a professor’s salary difficult, he began consulting for several area companies in topics as diverse as the optical properties of draperies, statistical process control of manufacturing processes, thermal properties of home cooking ovens, computer modeling of automotive rear vision systems, optical properties of automotive convex mirrors, and finally, computer modeling and production of optical coatings, where he got his start in vacuum coating. Clearly, focus wasn’t his thing. He joined the Research Department at Donnelly Mirrors, Inc., of Holland, MI and spent 4 years developing and scaling up processes for the manufacture of Indium-Tin-Oxide coatings using the newly invented planar magnetron reactive sputtering process. It was here in 1976 that Mike Hansen introduced him to the SVC. His family, tiring of intense winters, moved to Tennessee to join start-up Advanced Coating Table of Contents Technology, Inc., which produced architectural solar-control coatings with a proprietary Conference Center Map _____________ 2 sputtering technology from Welcome to the Conference _________ 3 Battelle.

He is very appreciative of the people who helped an Ozark hillbilly be the first in his family to graduate from high school and those who later provided him with mentoring and collaboration through all stages of his career, especially the wonderful support from Judy. These mentors include many in the SVC, but he wishes to highlight Don McClure, Vivienne Mattox, and John Felts for their help and guidance. Thank you all. Today he volunteers for FIRST® Robotics, which provides robotics training and competitions to K-12 students, and is also active in activities centered on deaf education. Judy and Jim enjoy watching and helping their grandchildren grow into fine adults.

Technology Forum Breakfast Coatings and Surface Engineering for Medical Applications Hana Baránková, Uppsala University, Sweden and Aryasomayajula Subrahmanyam, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, India Presently, the coatings industry in bio-medical applications has crossed the six billion dollar mark and still increasing. There is a vast scope for several emerging and new concepts. Among the emerging concepts that are proposed to be discussed are, for example (i) developing methods of assessing the potential longer term stability (ageing) issues associated with coated devices prior to clinical trials (ii) smart systems and sensors for regular health monitoring and (iii) development of early warning systems in mechanical heart valves. 7:00 a.m. – 8:15 a.m. Great America Ballroom (Lobby, J, KX) In these facilitator-led forums, experts are available to answer your questions and discuss your concerns in an informal environment. This morning’s topics include: Coatings for Thin Film Photovoltaics Wolfgang Diehl and Volker Sittinger, Fraunhofer Institute for Surface Engineering and Thin Films IST, Germany In 2013 the PV industry still faced a huge overcapacity of 40%. Because of this glut on the market, the prices have continued to decline. Due to the cost reduction, solar electricity has reached net parity in countries located in the sun-belt regions. Therefore, the worldwide installed PV capacities are steadily increasing towards 40 GW/a. Regarding its lower efficiency, thin film technology is facing ambitious targets concerning efficiency and price. In the next three years, the efficiency should reach 16% in modules while further reducing the manufacturing costs. Only CdTe and CIGS seem to show the potential to reach this target, thin film silicon at this point is not able to demonstrate this efficiency potential. Cheap and reliable coatings like TCOs, AR coatings, back contact technology and mature absorbers for thin film photovoltaics are the key issue for the breakthrough of this technology. High-Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) Arutiun Ehiasarian, Sheffield Hallam University, United Kingdom and Ralf Bandorf, Fraunhofer Institute for Surface Engineering and Thin Films IST, Germany HIPIMS is the newest industrialized PVD process offering the possibility of engineering the interface and film microstructure to provide high adhesion strength, high film density, excellent coverage of complex shapes, high resistance to harsh environments, and improved optical properties. Come learn about the new challenges facing this new technology and discuss the status and technological barriers broken by this process. Gas/Moisture Permeation Barrier Layers Adriana Creatore, Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands Amongst the challenges and emerging technologies in the field of electronic displays/ lighting, flexible electronics and solar cells, the research on the “ultimate gas/vapor barrier performance” which allows long term stability devices involves also the search for new deposition techniques, next to the more traditional sputtering and low pressure plasma deposition. During this Technology Breakfast Program we will review the deposition techniques, compare them, also in terms of barrier performances and compatibility with large area and roll-to-roll production. Furthermore, we will analyze the recent developments in the field at industrial/production level as well as at laboratory scale. Fabrication and Performance of Optical Coatings Ludvik Martinu, École Polytechnique de Montréal, Canada, and Bryant Hichwa, Sonoma State University (retired) In a friendly atmosphere of the Breakfast Forum, we will discuss advances in the area of optical films and optical filters with respect to the recent progress in optics, optoelectronics, photonics, optical microelectromechanical systems and others. Please bring your questions, solutions and discussion points related to the fabrication methods, optical coating materials, optical film metrology, mechanical properties of coated systems including plastics, as well as scale-up and other subjects related to the interests of the optical coating community. Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) Coatings George Savva, IHI Ionbond, Inc., Martin Keunecke, Fraunhofer Institute for Surface Engineering and Thin Films IST, Germany; and Thomas Schuelke, Fraunhofer USA, Inc. The unique microstructure of DLC films formed by appropriate proportions of sp3 and sp2 hybridizations of carbon in combination with the chemical inertness, low friction, biocompatibility and other advantageous properties has made this material extremely attractive for a large number of applications. This includes low friction coatings for the engine components 8 Society of Vacuum Coaters 2015 TECHCON Final Program Quartz Crystal Monitors C. Larry Lu, C. Lu Laboratory and Ric Shimshock, MLD Technologies, LLC Real-time, in situ control of deposition processes remains a challenge both in the lab and on the production floor. This Tech Forum Breakfast will focus on reviewing choices for implementing a robust process control approach. Potential discussion topics include weighing the various strengths and limitations of these control approaches, including Quartz Crystal Monitoring (QCM) and other optical based monitoring techniques, such as Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS), Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) and Optical Thickness Monitoring. Bring your questions for a chance to interact with one of the major contributors to the development of QCM technology, Dr. C. Larry Lu. Annual Business Meeting 8:30 a.m. – 9:00 a.m. Theater All are invited!

High-performance n- and p-type Thin Film Transistors (TFTs), prepared by physical vapor deposition (PVD) techniques have already been developed. PVD processes like rf magnetron sputtering can be performed near room temperature, which makes them compatible with the use of temperature sensitive, low-cost flexible substrates (polymers, cellulose paper, among others). Besides that, tremendous advances are coming through liquid solution-based technologies, which is very exciting for ink-jet printing, where the theoretical limitations are becoming practical limitations. In this presentation, some of the most promising new technologies for n- and p-type thin film transistors based on oxide semiconductors and their current and future applications will be reviewed. Some of the most promising new technologies for n- and p-type thin film transistors are in the form of nano-films or nanoparticles. Special emphasis will be given to solutionprocesses. A summary of the major milestones already achieved with this emerging and very promising technology will be presented. Monday .

The author is convinced that without thin film technology, no satisfying interface solutions are possible. In order to succeed however, much more knowledge base and holistic development strategies are necessary. In many applications of thin films, a multitude of physical effects are influencing the lifetime and reliability of the coated parts. Proper characterization and optimization of thin films requires invertible mathematical tools of sufficient holistic character. It is shown within tribological applications that there are ways for some completely analytical tools not only allowing a much better invertibility compared to discrete models but also an extreme (up to 1000 and more) acceleration of forward evaluations even for complex layered systems. This talk will feature the use of these applications and how they can be applied for the development of optimized coating structures. Thereby, we will concentrate on the practical side of the new tools application.

This morning’s topics include: Atmospheric Plasma Technologies Hana Baránková and Ladislav Bárdos, Uppsala University, Sweden Atmospheric plasma technology is a rapidly growing area in plasmaassisted technologies. Technologies using the atmospheric pressure plasma sources bring about fast processes, but it is important to be aware of limitations given by atmospheric plasma properties and plasma chemical reactions. Energy Conversion and Storage Carl M. Lampert, Star Science, and Ric Shimshock, MLD Technologies, LLC Energy conversion and storage is a group of technologies that address global needs of clean energy, air, water, and environment. At our breakfast we will have an open discussion on coatings, films and devices on the following topics: Energy Conversion: including fuel cells, and photothermal conversion; Energy Storage: including batteries, hydrogen and hybrid Transparent Conductive Oxides (TCO) for Thin Film Photovoltaics, Displays, Transparent Electronics and More Clark Bright, Bright Thin Film Solutions (3M, retired) TCO have many applications, with only a few listed above. All aspects of producing, characterizing, and using TCO coatings in applications as well as TCO fundamentals and physics, will be open for discussion. While ITO is still King, there is considerable progress toward finding TCO and other types of alternative Transparent Conductive Coatings (TCC). Zinc oxide-based TCO, e.g., AZO, GZO and ZO with other dopants, are receiving much attention and some commercial application. IZO is also in commercial use. Research is continuing on TiO2 (TiOx) with various dopants. Optically enhanced thin film metals, i.e., dielectric/metal/dielectric, deposited on flexible plastic film, with superior performance to ITO, are also in production. Tribological Coatings Allan Matthews, University of Sheffield, United Kingdom and Bill Sproul, Reactive Sputtering, Inc. and Gencoa Ltd. Tribological coatings are applied to surfaces by PVD processes to improve wear resistance and reduce friction. Recent developments in multilayered and nanostructured coatings are advancing this technology. Using these structures, it is possible to combine high hardness and relatively low elastic modulus. These developments will be discussed along with individual applications of tribological coatings. Optical Coating Design H. Angus Macleod, Thin Film Center Inc. It is difficult to imagine an optical system that would not need optical coatings. The shape of an optical surface is designed to manipulate the direction of the light but virtually every other optical property, even including some directional ones, is assured by the thin-film coating carried by the surface. The constant proliferation of optical applications continuously creates new and more demanding requirements for optical coating performance. To complicate matters, the coating is frequently required also to support other properties like environmental resistance. Of course there are advanced computer programs for thin-film design but optical coating design still involves skill, experience, and understanding.

Since 1998 yaw rate sensors produced by silicon micro machining have been used in the Electronic Stabilization Program - ESP®. The technological basis for this was created by the development of the deep reactive ion etching process for silicon wafers. The consequent progress in the field of MEMS based sensors led to flexible and cost-effective Inertial Sensor Cluster, now found in automobiles, mobile phones, tablets, and control units of video game consoles. Reducing the emission of a combustion engine car is a challenging task. The first steps were taken nearly 40 years ago, when the lambda sensor was introduced to control the fuel-air-mixture in the engine. Today, several connected sensors measure and control the emission of CO, CO2, NOx and particles. Whereas silicon based sensors typically utilize vacuum based processes (sputtering, PECVD, PVD and ALD) the modern exhaust sensors need a combination of adjacent techniques like thermal spraying without plasma, printing and casting technologies. With the continued connection of these sensors, interconnection will drive the technology development and the market in the next years. 11:20 a.m. MED-5 Development of Effective QCM Biosensors by Cyclopropylamine Plasma Polymerization and Antibody Immobilization using Cross-Linking Reactions Sponsored Student Presentation E.

Here we consider thin films made of graphene micro-webs and other plasma-produced nanomaterials and explore their unique three-dimensional webs and other arrangements that enable nanoscale connectivity, energy storage, sensing and other functionalities. Unique physical and chemical properties of thesenanomaterials are discussed and related to the specifics of vacuum coating technologies used to fabricate them. The various “things” enabled by the plasma-specific effects represent very interesting networked microscopic systems both for fundamental studies and advanced applications in the Interconnected Age.

This historical presentation celebrates the incredible success story that affects everybody’s life today, as magnetron sputter deposition enablesa wide range of product developments. Covering developments from as far back as Geissler and his glass chambers, to recent observations of traveling ionization zones or “spokes”, which have profound influence on magnetron operation and particle fluxes to the substrate, this journey in the world of magnetron sputter deposition is far from finished, which becomes abundantly clear when looking at its history in a time-lapse format. 2:20 p.m. V-10 LOOKING FOR: Film Thickness, Color, Sheet Resistance, or R/T Characteristics?

Significant cost reduction opportunities can also be found in terms of processing tool capital cost, utilized substrate area and process gas flow when compared with batch processing systems. Recently, significant advances have been made in device patterning enabling the mass production of a variety of flexible electronic devices. Significant challenges also exist in terms of the layer deposition technologies used in R2R manufacture of these devices. A variety of different web handling and coating technologies to enable high volume R2R manufacture of both active and passive components utilized in display have been developed. This talk describes the principal challenges inherent in moving from lab/ pilot scale manufacturing to high volume manufacturing. Results will be presented for both amorphous silicon and IGZO TFT backplanes, ITO based touch panel devices in addition to high barrier performance layers and stacks for both substrate encapsulation and barrier film for final device encapsulation.

This convergence has created an opportunity for the optical coating supplier to think in the terms of consumer electronics: high volumes, high yields, low cost, and rapid turnaround. Often, these coatings are directly deposited on customer-defined areas of active semiconductor devices. This demands that the processes be compatible with semiconductor protocols for temperature, cleanliness, material selection, etc. In such a case, the processing of the optical coating cannot impact the electrical performance or reliability of the underlying sensors. In this talk we will discuss the challenges that must be met, discuss potential approaches and highlight some of the many products that are pushing the technical envelope.
