A 5keV Caesium ion gun for UHV surface analysis applications
The IG5C features a low power, high brightness, surface ionization source coupled to a compact ion column, providing high performance in a small package. The gun is designed as a primary ion beam for all SIMS applications, dynamic, static and imaging.
Thin Films Optical Coating
Electronic Materials
Controlled via a windows PC based interface, which handles thermal management of the source, the gun is easy and reproducible to set up and can be configured for high current or small spot applications. Drivers for LabVIEW are also available to permit OEM integration into other systems.
Air stable ion source
Small mounting flange for flexible installation
Easy installation of self aligning replacement sources
Long source lifetime
Differential pumping to maintain true UHV chamber pressure
Two lens column design
Easy replacement of beam defining aperture
