New Update in Vac Coat RF Generators

News
[vc_row][vc_column width="3/4"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width="2/3"][vc_column_text css=""] New Update in Vac Coat RF Generators   Vac Coat RF generators have been updated with a new capability that allows the user to adjust RF power at a programmable rate. This feature enables a controlled increase in the RF power applied to the sputter cathode and target, which is crucial to prevent heat shock and target damage, particularly with ceramic targets.

DC Sputtering

DC Sputtering

Report
[vc_row][vc_column width="3/4"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=""] What Is DC Sputtering? Direct Current sputtering, also known as DC sputtering, a subclass of diode sputtering, is a common method used to deposit thin films of conductive materials. Applying a DC voltage between the cathode and anode in a vacuum chamber results in the formation of energetic plasma ions, bombarding the target material on the cathode and ejecting its atoms, which are then deposited on the substrate.

Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)

Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)

Report
[vc_row][vc_column width="3/4"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=""] Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) Conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) utilises a beam of electrons interacting with a thin specimen. The scattered electrons transmitted through the sample are subsequently collected to form an image revealing its structure. Transmission electron microscopes are consistently developed to overcome challenges and enhance the image resolution below 1 nm and magnification of up to 1,000,000x, creating various modes for extensive applications, such as high-resolution imaging of micro-nano structures, crystalline phase orientations, and elemental analysis. Moreover, achieving high-quality, accurate results for electron microscopy, specifically TEM, requires considerations in sample preparation steps prior to the analysis. This article is intended to shed light on the transmission electron microscopy basics, components, modes, as well as its applications, advantages, and challenges.
