Description

Imaging of non-conductive materials by electron microscopy requires covering sample surface with a thin layer, which acts as not only a conductor but also protects the examined material against electron beam damage.

The Leica EM ACE600 high vacuum coater is the perfect solution for every application. It is a fully automatic device that allows you to easily obtain thin, fine-grained and conductive metallic or carbon layers.

  • High repeatability and quality of obtained coatings
  • Larger and more even coverage due to angular sputtering sources
  • Unique and intuitive control system (touch panel)
  • System for continuous monitoring of coating thickness

Specification

  • metal vacuum chamber with dimensions of 200 x 150 x 195 mm
  • oil-free pump system including a diaphragm (13 l / min) and turbomolecular (67 l / s) pump
  • QSG (module with a quartz crystal for measuring the thickness layer with an accuracy of 0.1 nm), a set of 10 crystals
  • automatic sample stage rotation
  • LED lighting
  • metal inner chamber cover
  • removable chamber door with large, replaceable and safe window
  • easily replaceable head without the need for additional tools
  • plug for extension with a freezing handle
  • set of gloves to keep the chamber clean
  • power cable
  • brush to clean the remaining fibers from the head

Accesories

I Carbon thread evaporation,
II Sputtering,
III Carbon rod evaporation,
