The contract is for a high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) deposition system, which will be used by the Applied Superconductivity Center (ASC) at Florida State University's National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NMFL) for research into superconducting materials. The system will be used to deposit transition metals and alloys onto substrates made from metals, conductive ceramics, and insulating ceramics. The contract was awarded to Kurt J. Lesker Company. Key features of the contract include:
• The contract is for a single high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) deposition system
• The system will be used for research into superconducting materials
• The contract was awarded to Kurt J. Lesker Company
• The contact person is Casey M. Laurienzo, who is associated with the university's procurement department
