Turbomolecular pumped coater Q150T E Quorum Technologies
The device enables the deposition of high-purity, high-density amorphous carbon (C) thin films on the surface of non-conductive samples to improve the electrical conductivity of samples analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) grids, and the preparation of replicas for measurements in the scanning-transmission (STEM) mode.
Equipment is available in accordance with the Regulations for the Use of ACMiN's Research Infrastructure. (https://acmin.agh.edu.pl/home/acmin/5_Wspolpraca/Aparatura/Zasady_i_koszty_korzystania_z_infrastruktury_badawczej_ACMiN.pdf)
The device allows precise control of the carbon thickness thanks to an installed quartz crystal monitor. The minimum layer thickness is 1 nm.
