Nexus 2.0

AI ready thin film deposition control software

Endorsed by Dr Robert Richards at the University of Sheffield

Discover a world of possibilities

Nexus 2.0 is a versatile, fully customizable control platform designed for modern thin film deposition systems. Created to control a range of systems: MBE, ALD, PVD, PLD, TLE, MOCVD. Built to integrate seamlessly with existing hardware, it delivers precision, flexibility, and reliability without compromise.

Take full control of your process with automated calibration, intelligent monitoring, and a system architecture designed for scale.

Experience the Nexus balm

We have created NEXUS as the balm to the most common MBE user pain points. Whether you want to increase system up time, know when an effusion cell is going to run out, handle unstable thermocouples or reduce the time you spend manually gathering fluxes, NEXUS has a thoughtful feature to ease your pains. See how we address your pain points here.
