Application

HV ion beam sputter deposition system for thin film and multilayer deposition at 1″ substrates

Year of delivery

2020

Installation site

MLU, Halle (Saale), Germany

Design Features

  • HV ion beam sputter deposition system.
  • One focused gridded DC ion source oriented towards a target manipulator with four 2″ targets.
  • Fully motorized 3 axes target manipulator (manipulator z translation, manipulator rotation & (continous) target rotation).
  • Fully motorized 2 axes sample manipulator with intergated shutter & mask positioning and maximal sample temperature well above 800°C.
  • Big front door for sample exchange and service tasks.
  • Side port with door for glove box integration.

Special Features

  • Up to 3 masks can be mouted to the sample stage at the same time to be exchanged automatically during a deposition process.
