High-Quality Cleaning and Qualification up to 800 mm in dia. and 500 mm in height
The scia Clean 800 is used for dry-cleaning of 3-dimensional shaped substrates with weights up to 500 kg. The chamber design and functionality ensures a very good base pressure and allows to quantify even small residual contaminations on the substrate by mass spectroscopy measurement.
Features & Benefits
- Low base pressure and fast pumping due to electropolished and heated vacuum chamber
- Separate substrate heating for improved desorption
- Qualification of residual contamination by high-sensitive mass spectroscopy
- Optional plasma source for advanced cleaning with H2 plasma
- Recipes for repeatable temperature ramps and fully automated cleaning cycles
- Crane for loading of large and heavy substrates
Applications
- Ultra-high purity cleaning of X-ray optics
- Cleaning of components for beam line accelerators
- Outgassing qualification of complex vacuum assemblies
Principle
- Removing of contaminations from 3-dimensional shaped substrates by using ultra-high vacuum (vacuum desorption)
- Further cleaning progress with optional heating of substrate and/or chamber (thermal desorption) and applying plasma treatment
Technologies
Dry-Cleaning allows the removal of substrate surface contaminations in vacuum with different methods. These methods can be applied successively to optimize the cleaning results.
