P321 – HV inline sputter deposition system INCOATEC
Application
HV inline sputter deposition system for thin film and multilayer deposition at special sized substrates for X-Ray mirror production
Year of delivery
2012
Installation site
INCOATEC GmbH, Geesthacht, Germany
Design Features
- Inline HV magnetron sputter deposition system with full automatic control system for x-ray mirror production with very high film uniformity below 1%.
- Four rectangular magnetrons (target size: 12″ x 3.5″) in face to face configuration.
- Each magnetron mounted at a differentially pumped fliping door for fast and easy target exchange and source cleaning.
- Source shutter and direct gas inlet close to the target installed at each magnetron.
- Low pressure sputtering possible.
- In situ adjustable (stepper motor driven) aperture between targets and substrate.
- Motorized sample trolley with speed profile motion mode as well as constant speed motion mode implemented.
- Encapsulated and differentially pumped ball screw spindle drive.
- Maximal sample size of 400mm x 160mm x 80 mm.
- Residual gas analysis installed at the sputtering chamber.
- Load lock chamber with automatic sample transfer system and sliding access door.
Special Features
- Large motion speed range from about 33 µm/s up to 50mm/s possible.
- Optical system for backlash detection of the motion drive spindle.
