A method and system for depositing a thin film on a substrate. In the system a target material is deposited and reacted on a substrate surface to form a substantially non-absorbing thin film. The volume of non-absorbing thin film formed per unit of time may be increased by increasing the area of the surface by a factor of 'x' and increasing the rate of deposition of the target material by a factor greater than the inverse of the factor 'x' to thereby increase the rate of formation of the volume of non-absorbing thin film per unit of time.

Thin film coating system and method

A method for producing pigment flakes in the shape of thin plates. A chamber is provided which is placed under vacuum and a gas, which is capable of forming a plasma upon its exposure to a plasma generating device, was fed to the interior of the chamber device. The plasma is created within the chamber which forms a film upon a surface within the chamber. The film is converted to flakes which are then removed from the interior of the chamber.
