•The MVD process creates a controlled chemical deposition within the system chamber

•Conformal films as thin as a single mono-layer are deposited with very low consumption of precursor chemicals

•This system allows the generation of single-layer, multi-layer, and laminate coatings on a variety of substrates

The Leader in MEMS Anti-Stiction Coatings• AMST provides anti-stiction and hydrophobic

coating solutions to improve both the manufacturing yield and performance reliability of many MEMS devices

• As MEMS designs become both more complex, and more widely adopted, anti-stiction problems will become more of an issue

• More than 1 Billion MEMS microphones coated by the MVD® process

Stiction is the fundamental property that causes small movable devices to stick to each

other when placed in close proximity -
