VE-160 PVD Coating System ( e-Gun electron beam evaporation / Sputtering / Resistive deposition ) |
 |
This thin film tool has a wide range of uses, including solar, optical, battery, fuel cell, semiconductor, and nanotechnology applications. It is ideal for laboratories, university instruction, research & development, prototyping, and production. With a small footprint, it is compatible with cleanroom operation and maintenance.
Features
■ Multiple sources all available in the same chamber:
? e-Gun electron beam evaporation ? Sputtering ? Resistive deposition
■ Sources and utilities mounted on a single flange for simple swap and maintenance.
■ Source-to-substrate distance up to 24”, ideal for high-uniformity and liftoff processes.
■ PC Control System
■ Less than 15 minutes from atmosphere to process pressure of 10e-6 Torr.
■ Modular, expandable design with choice of “standard options.”
■ Easy access through 20” X 19” door to large 16” X 16” X 35” work space.
