Application Notes
|
1, A two-stage pressure regulator (not included) should be installed on gas cylinder to limit the gas output pressure below 0.02 MPa for safe usage
2, In order to remove oxygen from the chamber, MTI suggest you to use 5% Hydrogen + 95 % Nitrogen to clean the chamber 2-3 times, which can reduce oxygen level to < 10 ppm
3, Please use > 5N purity Argon gas for plasma sputtering. Even though 5N purity Ar usually contains 10 - 100 ppm oxygen and H2O depending on the supplier. Suggest you to use gas purification device to purify gas before filling in.
4, For best performance, the non-conductive targets must be installed with a copper backing plate. Please refer to the instruction video below for target bonding
5, Supplies single crystal substrate from A to Z
6, Sputtering Coaters have successfully coated ZnO on Al2O3 substrate at 500 °C
7, Test the flexibility of the thin film / coated electrode with EQ-MBT-12-LD mandrel bending tester.
8, HIGH VOLTAGE! Sputtering heads connect to high voltage. For safety, the operator must shut down the RF / DC generator before sample loading and target changing operations
9, DO NOT use tap water in water chiller. Use coolant, DI water, distilled water, or anti-corrosive additives with water
