01
Requirement Analysis
We learn from you what properties the surface must deliver — and propose possible material solutions, including their impact on your application.
02
Recipe Design
Our scientists design the deposition recipe — target materials, process window and layer architecture — building on 10+ years of IJD know-how and our recipe database.
03
Deposition Trials
Rapid iterations on our 4 laboratory systems: deposit, adjust, repeat — until the nanolayer meets the target.
04
Characterisation & Validation
Every candidate nanolayer is measured and verified: thickness, adhesion, hardness, composition and functional performance.
05
Scale-up to Production
The proven recipe is transferred to our industrial NOIVITRON systems — pilot batch, process documentation, production-ready process.

IJD in the real world

Energy Storage

Solid-state electrolytes, electrode coatings and battery interface layers.

Wear & Corrosion Protection

Hard carbide and nitride coatings on tools, moulds and mechanical components.

Photovoltaics & Optics

CIGS absorber layers, TCO films, anti-reflection and functional optical coatings.

Biomedical

Biocompatible and antimicrobial thin films on implants and medical devices.

Space & Extreme Environments

AtOx-resistant coatings and space-simulation testing of materials and surfaces.

Electronics & Semiconductors

High-k dielectrics, superconducting oxides (YBCO) and functional semiconductor films.

Sensors & MEMS

Piezoelectric films, gas sensing layers and functional microstructure coatings.

Industrial Plastics & Composites

Room-temperature coating where sputtering and thermal PVD cannot operate.

Where other PVD techniques stop,
IJD begins

Ionized Jet Deposition is a Physical Vacuum Deposition technique developed and patented by Noivion — delivering unique combinations of quality, flexibility and economics.

50 °C cold coating

Coat any material, on any substrate

Conductors, insulators, ultra-hard ceramics, refractory metals — IJD handles them all. Even plastics and composites at room temperature.

1:1 source material coated material

Exact stoichiometry, every time

Target composition transfers 1:1 to the film — just like PLD, without the laser cost. Critical for complex oxides, YBCO superconductors and CIGS semiconductors.

1 RUN 4 materials = multilayer

Up to 4 materials in a single run

Multi-source chambers enable gradient layers, hybrid nanolayers and complex heterostructures — all in one deposition cycle.

kV Pa mm Hz

Full process independence

Voltage, gas pressure, sample distance and pulse rate are all independent — giving you wider process space than sputtering or evaporation.

NOIVITRON coat implant

From prototype to serial production

The same IJD technology scales from R&D benchtop to the NOIVITRON industrial system — no process re-development when you scale up.

quality PLD IJD cost PLD IJD

PLD performance, IJD economics

Full PLD-class quality at a fraction of the investment. Small targets (10–30 mm) minimise material cost for rare and precious compounds.
