Sputter Coater Systems

DST-170

Turbo-Pumped Sputter Coater

This high vacuum SEM coater offers high quality uniform films with fine grain sizes which are suitable for specimens that require high resolution and high quality characterization such as FE-SEM, EDS/WDS, TEM, and EBSD. The DSCT with a 2” magnetron cathode, 80 W switching DC power supply and high current power supply for carbon evaporation, could be used for research and different thin film applications.

Pulsed Carbon Fiber Evaporation

Pulsed Carbon Fiber Evaporation The small chamber of DSCT is able to perform pulsed carbon fiber evaporation. Short pulses provide more controlled deposition and significantly reduces the amount of debris associated with traditional carbon deposition.

Sample Stages

Sample Stages The DCT can be equipped with different sample stage configurations depending on the user requirements. The sample stages are rotatable with adjustable height that can be changed easily. The rotary planetary sample stage is a good choice for uniform coating of porous specimens.

This device is available in two formats:

  • DCR is a rotary-pumped carbon coater that is suitable for SEM sample preparation, EDS/WDS and thin film applications.
 
  • DCT is a turbo-pumped carbon coater  that is ideal for FE-SEM, EDS/WDS, TEM, EBSD and thin film applications.
This high vacuum coater offers high quality uniform carbon films with fine grain sizes which are suitable for specimens that require high resolution and high quality characterization. Available in Carbon Fibre and/or Carbon Rod

The DST1 can be equipped with different sample stage configurations depending on the user requirements. The standard sample stage is rotatable with adjustable height and angle and can be changed easily. The rotary planetary sample stage is a good choice for uniform coating of porous specimens (optional).
 
The vacuum chamber is Cylindrical Pyrex. The DST1-170 is fitted with an internally mounted 90 L/s turbomolecular pump, backed by a 6m3/h two stage rotary vane pump. It introduces clean vacuum without oil contamination which normally exists with ordinary diffusion pump.
