HIPIMS 2026
Following a number of successful years, the Sheffield Hallam University HIPIMS Research Centre is pleased to invite you to the sixteenth edition of the International Conference on HIPIMS from 17-18 June 2026.
The traditional scope of High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering plasma and coating technology is now extended to include a broad range of technologies for plasma coating, plasma surface treatments and non-plasma advanced surface engineering.
The conference aims to:
- Promote High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) as a novel technology for surface modification and coating deposition
- Provide a scientific forum to discuss the fundamentals of plasma science and thin film growth and exchange ideas about new industrial applications of HIPIMS
- Bring together the surface engineering communities for plasma coating, plasma surface treatments and non-plasma advanced surface engineering
- Connect the academic research community with the industrial world to foster progress of plasma-based technologies
- Panel discussion 'Quo Vadis Surface Engineering?' on the topic of 'Surface Engineering in the Digital Age: Transformative Opportunities'
The conference will be held at Culters' Hall in Sheffield and the call for papers is currently open.
