Our facility is centred around a Mantis Deposition Ltd. Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) system, which has Knudsen sources for deposition of II-VI semiconductors, e-beam sources for the addition of transition metal dopants, and atom sources for supplying gas dopants without the disruptive effect of ion bombardment. Additional vacuum systems permit thermal evaporation, ion-assisted deposition, sputtering and Matrix-Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE).
