Back in the seventies, Materials Research
Corporation—MRC, was a leading, though not the largest, supplier of
PVD sputtering systems and one of its most outspoken evangelists. In
fact they were about fifth in market share. CVD (Chemical Vapor
Deposition) had been perfected but was still overwhelmed by PVD
(Physical Vapor Deposition—i.e.-evaporators). Meanwhile, a battle
raged within the PVD arena over whether e-beam or sputtering sources
would win out. E-beam, the long favored method, was superior when
laying down pure metals, but its control of alloy depositions was
inferior to sputtering.
