What is Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD)?
[vc_row][vc_column width="3/4"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] An Overview of Pulsed Laser Deposition Pulsed laser deposition is a physical vapor deposition technique in which a high-energy laser is focused on a target material in a vacuum chamber and converted to a plasma plume, which is deposited on a substrate (Figure 1). The deposition can be assisted by a flow of oxygen or other background gases, or occur under ultra-high vacuum conditions.
