In this paper, indium tin oxide coating on PET film is discussed. The coating was deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering in a roll-to-roll vacuum coater. Nano scratch tests and nano indentation tests were carried out on samples with different coating thicknesses. The influence of coating thickness to delamination process (important factor for adhesion) and load/penetration depth curves is established and different phenomenon are discovered

It is more environmentally friendly, gives good adhesion, in some cases it is the only possible way of coating deposition

In this paper Gallium doped Zinc oxide (GZ0) coating made by magnetron sputtering is discussed. During coating deposition 1-6 sccm of hydrogen was added in the atmosphere of the vacuum chamber. Coatings were deposited on a two polymeric films: polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) in continuous process in roll-to-roll vacuum machine. On the basis of measurement of electric and optical properties of coatings and the analysis of coating roughness and morphology measured by atomic force microscope influence of additive hydrogen on electrical and optical properties of coatings and crystal structure of a coatings is established

ZnO:Al layers were deposited on 100 μm thick PET (polyethylene terephthalate) film by magnetron sputtering of ZnO/Al2O3 2 wt.% planar ceramic target (225x100) mm in Ar/H2 atmosphere under (1–5)10 Torr pressure in the vacuum chamber. RF (13.56 MHz) and DC power sources were used separately. The PET film was fixed on a rotated water-cooled drum. The substrate surface was cleaned by an ion gun before ZnO deposition. The investigation shows that properties of ZnO layers depend mainly on the type of power source, power levels applied to the target and concentration of hydrogen in the gas mixture. ZnO layers must be structured in order to get maximum conductivity. When depositing zinc oxide on glass [1] this goal is achieved both by heating the substrate and by increasing sputtering power. Contrariwise, during the deposition of ZnO layers on the polyme...

In order to comply with the new three-dimensional surface roughness (texture) approach, production engineers and technologists will have to face many challenges in their daily work. This paper is providing a simplified description of the new surface texture standard and lines out certain practical solutions for immediate interim application in today's production environment: approximate calculation of 3D surface roughness parameters using 2D measurement equipment.
