The K975X Turbo Evaporator, is a multiple application system to enable a range
of preparation techniques to be applied with the flexibility and module expansion
capability to develop new methods and prepare new specimens.
It allows for Carbon Evaporation, Metal Evaporation from both Baskets and Crucibles
and a Sputter Coating option.
A range of techniques can be practiced including carbon support films and replicas
for TEM, Carbon/Metal Evaporation, Low Angle Shadowing and sequential layer
coatings using dual source evaporation and the Sputter Coating option can be
used for a range of target materials.
The system flexibility is further enhanced by the use of a microcontroller,
which readily allows the Customer access to a range of options, but readily
'defaults' to optimum operating conditions, allowing both fully automatic and
manual override as required.
The unique Loading Rack out Drawer sample system gives the user easy sample
access with good sample size and the hinged lid assembly makes any other areas
of the system readily accessible.
The unit has a Turbo Pump, externally mounted for convenience and easy exchange,
and is backed up by a Rotary Vacuum Pump. The complete pumping sequence is under
fully automatic control, achieving a high vacuum for evaporation.
The Unit is bench mounted, with easy to use controls, and cannot be damaged
by inadvertent use.
