Description

  • very easy & fast to use, for, e.g., SEM sample metallization
  • background pressure: <1E-6mbar, 650V, <150mA, 54mm targets
  • no substrate cooling

Manual

Sputtering

  • open N2 valve at wall 1/2 turn
  • insert sample, close chamber, open target knob on top of chamber
  • switch on (green switch), this starts prepump
  • open Ar bottle and little valve
  • purge 2-3x with argon (e.g., at 1E-1mbar open&close needle valve)
  • if sputtering longer than 1min, switch chiller on (~18deg)
  • switch turbo on at 1E-1mbar: activate “pumping unit” and “stand by”
  • adjust pressure using needle valve to 5E-2mbar
  • switch big dial knob to 0, set to “HTS”
  • select sputtering time and press start
  • adjust big dial for desired current (lower-righ indicator!)
  • wait
  • switch turbo pump off
  • if turbo stands still, switch off machine (green button), automatic N2 purging starts
  • close Ar, N2 supply ; switch off chiller

change target

  • open sputter head, fix head,
  • remove the two rings (with gloves, no force!)
  • replace target (manual: 54mm diameter)
  • note target material on machine!
