Operation Instructions
Compliance	CE approval NRTL certification is NOT available temporary.
Warranty	One year limited with lifetime support
Application Notes	For the best film-substrate adhesion strength, please clean the substrate surface before coating: Ultrasonic cleaning (Click the picture below to order) with the following sequential baths - (1) acetone, (2) isopropyl alcohol - to remove oil and grease. Blow dry the substrate with N2, then hot bake in vacuum to remove absorbed moisture Plasma cleaning (Click the picture below to order) may be needed for surface roughening, surface chemical bonds activation, or additional contamination removal A thin buffer layer (~5 nm), such as Cr, Ti, Mo, Ta, could be applied to improve adhesion of metals and alloys A two-stage pressure regulator (not included) should be installed on the gas cylinder to limit the output pressure of gas to below 0.02 MPa for safe usage. Please use > 5N purity Ar gas for plasma sputtering The sputtering coater can be placed into an Ar and N2 gas glove box for coating HIGH VOLTAGE! Sputtering heads connect to high voltage. For safety, the operator must shut down the equipment before sample loading and target changing operations This model is not suitable for coating light metallic material such as Al, Mg, Zn, Ni, etc. due to low energy. Please consider our magnetron sputtering coater or thermal evaporation coater.
