What Does IAD Stand For?
IAD stands for Ion Assisted Deposition
Ion Assisted Deposition (IAD) is a sophisticated coating process that enhances film quality by utilizing energetic ions to promote film growth and adhesion. By directing ions towards the substrate during deposition, IAD improves surface morphology, increases density, and enhances the mechanical and optical properties of thin films. This technique is widely employed in various applications, including optics, electronics, and protective coatings, where high-performance materials are required.
