NEWMain unit of high-temperature metal evaporator
ME-103C/104C series

Specification of Main unit of high-temperature metal evaporator

Structure
EvaporatorCrucible-type evaporator
Heating methodDirect resistance heating by filament
Inner volume
of crucible
3 mm (dia.) × 6 mm (depth) (material: alumina)
Number of
elements
(crucibles)
Four for an evaporator with no shutter function; Three for an evaporator with the shutter function
* The main body needs to be returned to Unisoku for the crucible exchange.
Additional expenses are also needed.
Mounting flangeICF70
Connector10-pin current lead terminal
Cooling
mechanism
A water-cooling jacket is provided as standard
(amount of water: 1 L/min.)
* Water cooling is indispensable, especially when the evaporator is used at 1000 degree C or higher.
Distance from
the flange face
to the crucible
head tip
At least 100 mm from the mounting flange face to the crucible head tip (with no shutter).
(The distance can be extended at your request at the time of order.)
Target distanceAt least 100 mm from the crucible head tip
Vacuum chamber mounting directionThe vacuum chamber must be mounted at an angle of at least 30 degree from the horizontal.
Performance
Heating
temperature
range
700-1700 degree C (Recommended temperature during continuous use is 700-1600 degree C)
* The maximum temperature is 1600 degree C (current: 7A) when a UNISOKU controller is used for temperature control.
* The temperature measurement is not available if the evaporator has no thermometer.
* There are some differences between the inside temperature of crucible and setting temperature.
Heating currentMax.7.5A-14V
Baking temperature<200 degree C
Evaporation element
Material formPowder, granule, wire, and other forms that can be placed in the crucible.
Material
fill volume
The recommended amount is 1/2 the volume of the crucible or smaller (depending on the mounting angle).
* Temperature measurement is not available if the evaporator has no thermometer.
Evaporation
material that
can be used
Elements that can be evaporated at 1700 degree C or lower. Note that elements that evaporate at 700 degree C or lower are hard to control.
Shutter function -- Provided as standard for the L103CS/103CS series
Switching
mechanism
Manual switching using the rotary motion feedthrough
(with a rotation stopper)
Shutter plateSize: 34 mm dia.; Rotation diameter: 30 mm
Film thickness gauge function -- Provided as standard for the L103CSF/103CSF series
