JSW AFTY, part of Japan Steel Works, specializes in thin-film deposition equipment, with its technology heritage rooted in ECR (Electron Cyclotron Resonance) plasma deposition. Its portfolio covers ECR plasma deposition and atomic layer deposition (ALD) systems, enabling low-temperature, low-damage film formation as well as highly controlled conformal deposition on high-aspect-ratio and 3D structures. The company provides equipment development, manufacturing, process support and after-sales services for advanced electronic-device applications.
