Hind High Vacuum Company (HHV) has partnered with RV College of Engineering, Bangalore, on a solar research project.
HHV has developed and commissioned a dual process thin film deposition system at the research centre in RVCE.
Thin film technology and the R&D group of HHV has been working together with the college on this project to develop high performance thin film coatings for solar thermal application, as a part of the project titled ‘Development of multi-layer coatings for enhanced solar thermal absorption at high temperature’ sanctioned by Department of Science and Technology.
Prasanth Sakhamuri, Managing Director, HHV, said: “We are partnering with RVCE in their Golden Jubilee year, on this DST research project. This dual processes system has been designed to use Physical Vapor Deposition system and Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition system process independently or in combination of both for the development of thin film.”
