1. plural of metallization; the process or result of coating, treating, or converting something into metal or a metallic substance
Usage: technical; commonly used in materials science, electronics, and manufacturing
2. in electronics and semiconductors, the deposition of metal layers on surfaces to create electrical connections or conductive pathways
Usage: technical; field-specific to semiconductor and microelectronics manufacturing

Examples

• The metallizations on the circuit board enable electrical connections between components.
• Engineers studied various metallizations to improve the durability of the coating.
• Advanced metallizations in semiconductor fabrication require precise temperature control.
• The quality of metallizations directly affects the performance of microchips.
• Different metallizations were tested to find the most cost-effective solution.
