VTC-EV3-GB is a thermal evaporating system in the glovebox with a total of 3 evaporating sources and precision temperature control. Three evaporating crucibles could be used to grow multilayer films one by one in the same chamber atmosphere. The system is suitable for coating most of the film of the metallic and organic material up to 4" in size from 200 ÂșC - 1700 ÂșC with a B-type thermocouple.Â

Temperature Control & Heaters
|
- Three 3 mL Alumina Evaporating Crucibles with Tungsten coil are includedÂ
- Three sources can be heated one by one to achieve a multi-layer coatingÂ
- 3 pcs B-type thermocouple (installed in each crucible) - heating from 200 ÂșC - 1700 ÂșC (PIC. 1-2 )
- One digital temperature controller with 30 programmable segments and +/- 1 ÂșC accuracy (PIC. 2)
- Recommend to limit the temperature heating / cooling rate to 0.3 ÂșC/s (or 20 ÂșC/min) below 1200 ÂșC, and limit to 0.15 ÂșC/s (or 10 ÂșC/min) from 1200 - 1700 ÂșC

Vacuum
|
- The KF40 vacuum port is installed to connect to a vacuum pump
- The vacuum may reach <1E-5 Torr by pumping overnight with optional Turbo-pump
- A vacuum pump is required for coating. Please choose from the following Product Options
-
Double Stage Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump with vapor trap to eliminate the oil mist, which can reach vacuum up to 1.0E-2 Torr for evaporating noble metallic materials, such as gold, silver, and organic materials. Anti-Corrosive Capacitance Diaphragm Gauge is included
-
Compact Turbomolecular Vacuum Pump System is able to provide a vacuum level up to 1.0E-5 Torr for evaporating oxygen-sensitive materials, such as Al. Mg, Li, etc. A combined Pirani and cold cathode gauge are included with the pump to measure vacuum up to 1.0E-8 Torr
