A training school on HIPIMS was organised by Professor Arutiun Ehiasarian to address the need for High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) fundamentals and research findings to reach a wider audience

Sheffield Hallam University is pleased to announce that, in partnership with TWI (formerly The Welding Institute) and Ionbond UK Ltd, it has won a collaborative research project supported by Innovative UK to developer coatings for friction stir welding (FSW) tools.

From 1999-2002, the Raman Spectroscopy of PVD Coatings project aimed to develop a Raman based method of monitoring the quality of coatings produced by the Surface Engineering Group and monitor stress and wear induced changes in hard coatings

Coating microstructure characterisation is key in accelerating product development. It supports product development as a link between process and product performance.
