Matrix Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation Attachment For PLD
- This is a flange mounted target rotation attachment for PLD where frozen targets can be used.
Features
- DC Motor: this is a 10 rpm 12 V motor for rotating the target on its own axis.
- Rotating feed through: These are O ring sealed feed throughs and allow rotation from atmospheric side to transmit to vacuum side.
- The LN2 passes through the central hollow part of this feedthrough to keep the target frozen.
- Brass holder to hold the frozen target.
- In this technique the target (normally in liquid form) is poured into the brass holder and slowly dipped into LN2 to freeze the target.
- Embedded PT100 sensor.
- AS soon as a vacuum of the order of 10-3 to 10-4 torr is reached LN2 is poured through the funnel provided to keep the target frozen through out the deposition.
