P397 – 7″x7″ HV e-beam deposition system CEITEC
Application
HV e-beam deposition system for thin film and glacing angle deposition at maximal 7″x7″ substrate.
Year of delivery
2015
Installation site
CEITEC, Brno, Czech republic
Design Features
- HV e-beam deposition system for thin film deposition.
- Moveable multi pocket e-beam source.
- Motorized pocket exchange and z motion for automatic deposition processes.
- Thickness controller incl. rate regulation and end point detection.
- Thickness sensor with shutter for extended crystal life time when rate regulation is not active.
- Fully motorized 2 axes sample manipulator with integrated pneumatic sample shutter and maximal sample temperature well above 800°C.
- Integrated bake out system.
- Load lock chamber including sample preparation stage.
- Dosing gas inlet valve for oxydation or nitration.
- Optional:
- Ion source for sample precleaning and mild etching.
- Two effusion cells.
- Thermal evaporation source.
Special Features
- Very large distance variation between sample and e-beam source possible (mechanically limited to 190mm travel).
- Different sample sizes from 7″ x 7″ sample plates down to 10mm x 10mm wafer pieces can be handled (using different kind of sample adapters).
