Electron Beam Evaporator EBV 40A1
The electron beam evaporator EBV 40A1 is designed for ultra-pure sub-monolayer and multilayer MBE thin film growth.
Manufacturer
Prevac
Prevac are a world leader in the design and production of analytical and deposit scientific and research equipment. Their systems operate in a high and ultra high vacuum environment. They design and construct UHV and HV systems fully adapted to the individual requirements of research projects and industrial applications.
Key Features
- Manual or electro-pneumatic shutter, integrated flux monitor
- W/Th-filament for evaporation from rod material or from small conductable crucible
- Wide range of exchangeable exit apertures
- Integral water cooling
- Suitable for various materials
- Unique high reliability design
- Extremely high power densities
- Extremely high power densities
Description
The precisely defined evaporant beam means highly uniform deposition on the sample, the deposition area being determined by the distance from the E-beam evaporator to the sample and the choice of one of the easily exchangeable exit apertures. The electron beam evaporator EBV 40A1 is configured with choice of manual or automatic shutter. Custom insertion length 190 – 345 mm (other on request).
