Vacuum Science and Technology

Vacuum science and technology involve the study and application of creating and controlling regions with very low pressure, or vacuum. These areas have fewer particles than the atmosphere, allowing precise control of environments for manufacturing, scientific research, and industrial processes. Vacuum systems enable things like faster electronic device production, surface analysis, and space simulation. Key components include pumps that remove air and gauges that measure pressure. Understanding vacuum science helps engineers develop better equipment and processes, ensuring higher quality, efficiency, and innovation across many fields.
