DST3-S - Sputter Only – Straight Cathodes

DST3-S - Sputter Only – Straight Cathodes

The DST3 Triple Target Sputter Coater is equipped with a large chamber (300 mm diameter) and three 2” diameter water-cooled cathodes which make it suitable for long time deposition. The magnetron desk sputter coater (magnetron sputtering) is equipped with RF and DC power supplies. It can sputter semiconductors dielectrics and metal (oxidizing [&] noble) targets (Deposition Table). The Confocal Sputter Coater is equipped with an auto adjustable matching box minimizing the reflected power in the RF Sputtering. For increasing film adhesion to the substrate and to improve the film structures a 300 V DC bias voltage can be applied to the substrate (optional).
