Introduction of the High Vacuum Carbon Coater Model 100AF

the High Vacuum Carbon Coater Model 100AF, designed specifically for Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). This model is a great addition to our line of vacuum coating systems which VPI invented about 10 years ago, and it offers several unique features that make it an ideal choice for the TEM community.

Features:

One of the main features of the Model 100AF is its high vacuum capability. The coater can reach a base pressure of 5x10-5 torr, which ensures that the carbon films produced are of high quality and have a very low level of contamination. The vacuum system also has an automatic pressure control system, which maintains a stable vacuum during the coating process.

Another key feature of the Model 100AF is its customizable carbon fiber evaporation system. The user can adjust the distance between the carbon fiber and the sample holder, which allows for control of the deposition rate and film thickness. The system is also could be optionally equipped with an filament advance mechanism, which ensures a consistent coating thickness throughout the entire sample.

The coater also comes with a user-friendly touch screen interface or manual operation version. The Model 100AF also has a built-in thermal evaporator, which allows for the deposition of other materials in addition to carbon.

Applications:

The Model 100AF is an ideal choice for researchers and scientists who need to prepare high-quality carbon films for TEM analysis. The coater is suitable for a wide range of applications, including biological samples, polymers, and nanomaterials. The customizable carbon fiber evaporation system makes it possible to deposit films of varying thicknesses, from a few nanometers up to several microns.

In conclusion, the High Vacuum Carbon Coater Model 100AF from Vision Precision Instruments is a state-of-the-art vacuum coating system that offers a range of unique features designed specifically for TEM applications. The customizable carbon fiber evaporation system, high vacuum capability, and user-friendly operation interface make it an ideal choice for researchers and scientists who require high-quality carbon films for their work.
