DESCRIPTION

These are softer (graphite type) carbon rods, 55mm long, pre-shaped and ready for use in the vacuum coating unit. Each pack contains 10 rods, shaped on one end.  The most commonly used methods are carbon evaporating using a pre-shaped carbon rod or from a woven thread of carbon fiber in a vacuum system. Features include:

  • Control over power and evaporation time determines thickness
  • Clean carbon layer
  • More powerful source (up to 185A) is needed
  • Multiple evaporation possible with one set of rods
  • Pulse mode without breaking vacuum can be used to built up a thicker carbon layer to reduce thermal load

 

Carbon coating is widely used in electron microscopy and microprobe analysis for:

  • Support films for TEM (high vacuum (HV) evaporation)
  • Conductive films for SEM/EDS samples (low vacuum evaporation)
  • Conductive surface films for non-conductive microprobe samples (HV evaporation)
  • Conductive surface films for non-conductive EBSD samples (HV evaporation)
  • Conductive surface films for non-conductive FESEM samples (HV evaporation)
  • Conductive surface films for non-conductive FIB samples (HV evaporation)
