ICAN: Sputter Coater ACE 600

Sputter Coater ACE 600

The Leica EM ACE600 is a high vacuum coating system, for the preparation of thin metal or electrical conducting carbon films for the use in FE-REM and TEM analysis. The sample is mounted on a holder with a planetary gear. Combined with the in-situ deposition rate measurement, using a quartz microbalance, extremely homogenous thicknesses can be prepared.

The target material is sputter either by an argon plasma or by electron bombardment. Any material, that is not damaged by vacuum, ar-plasma or heat, can be coated.
