Vacuum Coating Chamber Maintenance

Vacuum Coating Chamber Maintenance

Report
[vc_row][vc_column width="3/4"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=""] Vacuum Coating Chamber Maintenance Vacuum chambers are the heart of a vacuum coating system. Maintenance of the vacuum coating chamber used in physical vapour deposition (PVD), including sputtering or thermal evaporation methods, is critical to ensure layer quality, repeatability, device uptime, and equipment lifespan. The main considerations in vacuum chamber maintenance include vacuum chamber cleaning from contamination, leak detection, inspecting O-rings and seals, and vacuum pump(s) servicing. A vacuum coating may also contain other parts like film thickness monitor, gas flow controller (MFC), cooling system, etc., that require frequent inspection and calibration.
