VTC-1RF is a desktop 1“ single head RF Plasma magnetron sputtering system for coating non-metallic, mainly for oxide thin fim It is a cost effective coater for researching new generation non-conductive thin film.
SPECIFICATIONS
Input Power
•220 VAC 50/60 Hz, single phase •800 W (including pump) •If operating at 110V, one 1000W ttransformer will be required. Clcik picture below to order
Source Power
•One 13.5 MHz, 100W RF Generator with manual matching is included and connected to 1" sputtering head. •300W RF Generator with auto matching is optional at extra cost. ( click pic below to see detailed specs ) •Note : Manual matched RF source has lower cost, but needs time to adjust plasma glowing for each tyoe of target. Auto-matched RF saves time, but more expensive

Operation Instruction
Application Note
•This compact 1" RF coater is designed for coating oxide thin film on oxide single crystal substrate, which usually don't need high vacuum set-up. •In order to remove oxygen from the chamber, suggest you use 5% Hytrogen + 95 % Nitrogen to clan chamber 2-3 times, which can reduce oxygen to below 10 ppm •Please use > 5N purity Argon gas for plasma sputtering.
Even though 5N purity Ar, usually contain 10- 100 ppm oxygen and H2O dependedon supplier.
Strongly suggest you use gas purification device listed below to purify gas before filling in : ( click pic to order ) •MTI supply single crystal substrate from A to Z ( click picture below-right to order )
