Cressington 208HRD High Resolution Sputter Coater from Cressington offers real solutions to the problems encountered when coating difficult samples for FESEM imaging. FESEM applications need extremely thin, fine-grained, uniform coatings to eliminate charging and to improve contrast on low density materials. In order to minimize the effects of grain size, the 208HR offers a full range of coating materials and gives unprecedented control over thickness and deposition conditions. The 208HRD Turbo Pumped High Vacuum System offers a wide range of operating pressures allowing precise control of both uniformity and conformity of the coating, minimizing charging effects.
The 208HRD employs a compact 28mm diameter target design that offers higher efficiency to better utilize more expensive target materials such as iridium. An additional benefit with using a smaller diameter sputter source is that it helps lower the total system cost with target compared to larger target systems.
Sputter Target : Cr, Pd/Pt as standard, ( Ta, Au, Au/Pd, Pt, Ir or W is optional )
The main features are:-
- Wide Choice of Coating Materials Magnetron head design and effective gas handling allow a wide choice of target materials (see specification).
- Economical target utilization. The 208HRD offers a smaller diameter target and modified chamber configurations to give more economical usage for costly materials like iridium.
- Precision Thickness Control. Thickness optimized for FESEM application using the MTM-20 High Resolution Thickness Controller, which has a resolution of 0.1nm. This enables precise and reproducible thin coatings, especially in the range of 0.5 - 3nm, a thickness desirable for FESEM applications.
- Multi-angle Stage Movements. Separate rotary, planetary and tilting stage movements ensure uniform coating with excellent conformity, even on highly topographic samples.
- Variable Chamber Geometry: Chamber geometry is used to adjust deposition rates from 1.0 nm/sec to 0.002 nm/sec to optimize structure.
- Wide Range of operating Pressures: Independent power/pressure adjustment allows operation at argon gas pressure ranges.
- Compact Modern Benchtop Design: Space and energy saving design eliminates need for floor space, water, specialized electrical connections.
