Overall, the survey revealed that research and innovation activities are well positioned in Finland. In order for future innovation policies to further support developments in the field, we estimated that policy strategies need to generate about 6-8 M€/year in national and EU- funding instruments for AM technology transfer, development, and innovation activities. Efforts should be targeted towards strengthening uses of AM in final production. In fact, only 36% of Finnish respondents declared to use AM for final production, while leading countries in AM use it in average more than 50%. Another area in need of development in Finland is the use of AM high performance materials. Moreover, outsourcing of AM services in Finland is 23 percentage point higher in national and 13 percentage point higher in international outsourcing to service bureaus and suppliers. In this regard, future policies and funding strategies should maintain the created momentum.

This equipment can be installed on a single vacuum flange for mounting on a variety of vacuum systems, but linear flow systems are preferred. Our recently developed ion source can generate ribbon ion beams of high current and low divergence over a wide range of energies, but is optimized for about 1 to 5 keV, and high ion currents of up to 1A per meter breadth; breadths of several meters are possible. The current density is an order of magnitude higher than existing systems. Uniformity is intrinsically good and can be controlled in real-time. The ion source and the sputter target are mounted close to each other and to the target; the cross section of the equipment does not change as the equipment is scaled up to large dimensions. The ion beam impinges on the sputter target at the optimum angle and energy, in a field-free region, and in high vacuum. This combination of conditions is unique, and dramatically raises the sputter yield. Free choice of beam energy permits higher thermal efficiency. High vacuum means that the deposited atoms comprising the film retain the full energy of several eV that was produced in the sputtering process. The geometry further permits extremely simple and efficient jetting of reactive gases such as oxygen for the production of oxide films. The single broad-beam source has far higher current density and a far more compact layout than existing ion-beam sputtering systems, and can be installed in linear processing systems in a similar manner to linear magnetrons.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20407,"journal":{"name":"Physics Procedia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.phpro.2017.09.057","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83421958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
