TSST Logo - Thin Film Deposition - Nanotechnology

Twente Solid State Technology (TSST) was founded in 1998 as a spin-off company for the University of Twente, and offers high quality thin film solutions (thin film deposition, nanotechnology). As a result TSST products can now be found around the world.

TSST wants to contribute to the progress in the worldwide scientific community of advanced thin film materials by:

  • Providing state-of-the-art deposition equipment, with focus on pulsed laser deposition
  • Developing and sharing relevant expertise

SystemSketch

The company is specialised in design and production of customised thin film deposition equipment, specifically Pulsed Laser Deposition equipment for advanced studies. An example is the use of Reflection High Energy Electron Diffraction (RHEED) under high-pressure conditions, which gives real-time information about the surface morphology during deposition.

Every system can be controlled through a central console, giving full control of all parameters involved. This allows the rapid replication of settings and deposition, which results a higher reliability in less time.

Apart from the equipment, the company also produces ceramic thin films, and offers services for research in the field of ceramic thin films, such as the surface treatment of ceramic substrates. TSST is able to provide these services due to the strong cooperation with the MESA+ institute at the University of Twente. TSST can make use of the laboratories of this research institute.

Scitek offers a range of thin film deposition associated solutions, of which includes the range provided by TSST. Specialising in pulse laser deposition technologies, they assist in high-end thin film deposition in the field of nanotechnology.
