Electron-beam evaporation coating system
Category: Electron-beam evaporation
Overview
Technical Specifications
This product, in an ultra-high vacuum environment:
The electron gun filament (tungsten/LaB₆) emits thermoelectrons upon heating.
The electrons are accelerated by a high voltage of 10–30 kV and then focused by electromagnetic lenses followed by a 270° magnetic deflection, resulting in a high-energy, highly precise electron beam.
An electron beam is directed at the target material housed in a water-cooled copper crucible, generating localized, instantaneous temperatures of 3,000–6,000°C, which cause the target to melt or sublimate into gaseous atoms or molecules.
Gaseous particles travel in straight lines through a vacuum and deposit onto the surface of a rotating or heated substrate, where they condense to form a uniform, dense thin film.
Throughout the entire process, a quartz crystal oscillator provides real-time monitoring of film thickness and deposition rate (0.1–10 nm/s), enabling closed-loop control.
