Angstrom Engineering Ranks #55 In Manufacturing On The 2016 Profit 500

Publications Canadian Business and PROFIT have ranked Angstrom Engineering Inc. number 55 in the manufacturing category on the 28th annual PROFIT 500 ranking of Canada’s Fastest-Growing Companies. Determined by five-year revenue growth, the PROFIT 500 profiles the country’s most successful growth companies.

Angstrom Engineering is a global leader in thin film deposition for physical vapor deposition (PVD), and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) applications, and earned its place on the list with a five-year growth of 156%. Recognized for the fourth year in a row as a growing Canadian company, Angstrom Engineering is very proud to be amongst this community of elite organizations.

“We are once again extremely honoured to be a part of this PROFIT 500,” says co-owner Andrew Campbell. “We have a team in place that is absolutely dedicated to making our customers beyond satisfied, and that hard work has paid off in another year we can be proud of.”

Angstrom Engineering manufactures thin film equipment that is used in the world’s top labs to allows scientists, researchers, and industrialists the ability to innovate incredible new technologies by using physical vapor deposition processes such as electron beam evaporation, thermal resistive evaporation and magnetron sputtering. Within the thin film industry, Angstrom Engineering has established a reputation for impeccable communication and service to its customers. Since 1992, Angstrom Engineering has been providing this turn-key equipment to many of the worlds most recognized research facilities.

Having arrived in Brazil, our partner’s logistics team takes the lead, taking it out of the wooden box so that it can fit through the door of the facility. The journey resulted in the standard small bumps and dents that are categorized and logged so that our installation team can quickly and effectively get the system up and running, which they do.

Finally, all that’s left to do is to fabricate some superconducting circuits, and further the field of quantum computing. Our partners at Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Fisicas (CBPF) expressed their excitement at having gained the capabilities  of partnering with us in this translated LinkedIn post:

 

It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the arrival of the newest equipment, from Angstrom Engineering, to the Quantum Technologies Laboratory of CBPF. This laboratory is complementary to Labnano, one of the strategic laboratories of SisNANO – the National System of Nanotechnology Laboratories of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI).

SisNANO is comprised of a set of laboratories focused on research, development and innovation (RD&I) in nanosciences and nanotechnologies, with the essential characteristic of being multi-user and open access to public and private institutions.

Acquired with funding from Finep and support from MCTI, the new equipment will allow CBPF to advance in the manufacture of superconducting quantum nanodevices, such as Josephson junctions and SQUIDS. These devices are essential for the development of future quantum chips, which promise to transform areas such as computing, secure communication and metrology.

The impact of this advance is also connected to related projects funded by FAPERJ, CNPq and Petrobras, consolidating a robust research ecosystem in Brazil.

This achievement reinforces the commitment of CBPF and MCTI to leading the frontier of scientific research, contributing to enabling the country to compete in a global scenario marked by disruptive and strategic advances.

We would like to thank the institutions involved and the professionals who made this achievement possible. We invite the scientific, technological and industrial community to closely monitor the transformative results that this new infrastructure will provide.
