A production quality radio-frequency sputter deposition system          will be used collaboratively by three separate engineering                      laboratories to support experimental exploration of the properties of           various thin film structures useful in data storage and micro-                  electronics, and to develop specialized micro-miniature sensors and             control devices.  A common theme of the proposed research is to                 achieve sufficient fundamental understanding of plasma deposition               processes to develop novel thin film technologies.  The understanding           will be achieved by analyzing the relationships among various                   deposition process parameters and significant optical, magnetic,                electrical and mechanical properties of the sputtered films.  The               principal system application will be deposition of magneto-optical              Kerr effect media by sputtering thin films of rare earth-transition             metal alloys.
