Sputter Coater and Thermal Evaporator for Glove Box – DST2-TG

The DST2-TG, double target turbo pumped sputter coater with thermal evaporator for glove box use, is a multi-vacuum coater system that combines thermal evaporator and sputter coater in one single compact desktop system with remote system control through a Wi-Fi connection, controllable by both touch screen and PC.

The high vacuum system is suitable for the deposition of a wide range of materials. Double magnetron target desk sputter coater can easily switch between evaporation and sputtering deposition for the preparation of multilayer coatings.

Description

The DST2-TG magnetron desk sputter coater is a high-precision semi/fully automated vacuum coating system equipped with a large chamber (300 mm diameter) and two 2” diameter water-cooled cathodes, which make it suitable for long-time deposition. The system is a single platform for sputtering, carbon fiber, and metal evaporation. The magnetron desk sputter coater can sputter semiconductors, dielectrics, and metal targets. Sputtering cathodes and thermal evaporation boats could be installed together or interchangeably, with an overall three deposition sources accessible (When placing the order). Carbon deposition is also made possible by utilizing carbon fiber.

Glove box systems provide a protected environment for sensitive material, preventing any contact with air or humidity and unwanted interactions. DST2-TG high-vacuum coating system with glove box offers a convenient chamber environment contributing to high purity thin layer deposition under high vacuum conditions, along with secure substrate handling under inert gas atmosphere.

Clean Vacuum

The vacuum chamber is Cylindrical Pyrex. The DST2-TG is fitted with an internally mounted 90 L/s turbo molecular pump, backed by a 6 m3/h two-stage rotary vain pump. The glove box mounted DST2-TG introduces an extremely controllable chamber environment for high purity thin layer deposition, along with safe and clean sample handling before/after a deposition process under inert gas atmosphere inside the glove box.

Touch Screen Control

DST2-TG is equipped with a 7” colored touch-screen panel using user-friendly software to control and adjust the deposition process data. The panel window is also made available on pc through a Wi-Fi connection. The vacuum and coating sequence information can be observed as digital data or curves on the touch screen and the last 300 coatings are saved on the history page.
