PLD Systems
Fully automated UHV system dedicated to PLD applications.
- Process chamber with base pressure better than 5x10-10 mbar. Allows for deposition of thin films on the substrate and their characterisation in-situ by RHEED methods. The main chamber contains ports for e.g. RHEED gun and screen, ion source, beam flux monitor, quartz balances, effusion cells, vacuum gauges, gas dosing system etc.
- 3-axes, motorised target manipulator with revolver mechanism with possibility of holding up to 6 target holders. Dedicated to 1" target PTS holders.
- 5-axes, motorised substrate manipulator with heating up to 1200 °C or LN2 cooling (for 1" substrate PTS holders).
- 1-axis, motorised manipulator for wedge layers and masks.
- Load lock with linear transfer for fast and easy substrate/target holders introduction . Able to store up to 8 PTS holders.
- Automatic gas dosing system for quick gas input.
The whole deposition process including transferring and positioning of substrate/target holders can be fully software controlled and automated using PREVAC's electronics and dedicated innovative Synthesium software.
The system can be supplied in a standalone configuration or as part of a larger integrated research system.
