MOSAIC is DCA’s next-generation process control software and is now delivered with every new system, giving complete software control of the entire UHV tool, from a single, configurable interface over one Ethernet connection, on Windows or Linux.

What sets MOSAIC apart ?

Root-cause analysis:

• flag any event and MOSAIC analyses the system parameters to identify the most likely cause.
• optional SMS alerts can flag fault conditions on unattended runs

Highly customisable UI:

• Users can add/remove/move plots, status cards, and tabs to build their own views
• Permission levels tailored for each user
• a clear API with Java and Python SDKs is available for deeper automation or integration

AI-ready by design:

• AI-ready architecture built toward fully self-driving deposition
• MOSAIC was built from the ground up to run pre-trained AI models
• DCA’s AI models are developed and validated before release as controlled, version software updates
• the AI models begin with assisted parameter tuning and flux-drift compensation, and advancing toward self-driving deposition
• runs on a local PC, no cloud needed (your process – your data)

Automated growth-cycle management:

• sample recipes are built from layers (sub-recipes of commands), with each layer assigned to a specific chamber

• easy recipe creation and editing with the graphical editor and command library
• all recipes run in parallel, automatically sequencing transfers and optimising run time
• full control throughout – pause, edit, or override mid-run
• automatically generates end-of-run growth report

Continuous data logging:

• Every value and I/O channel is continuously recorded at 0.5 s intervals
• Older data is aggregated to minimise disk space while ensuring efficient storage and retrieval
• Data export and API access
