Line-of-sight deposition

It i s not restricted to a line-of-sight deposition which is a general characteristic of sputtering, evaporation and other PVD processes. As such, CVD has highthrowingpower.

Line-of-sight deposition allows the use of masks to define areas of deposition. 

Line-of-sight deposition gives poor surface coverage - elaborate tooting and fixmring is needed. 

Line-of-sight deposition provides poor deposit uniformity over a large surface area without complex fixturing and tooting.
