We understand that every vacuumsystem configuration may be different. Weoffer many standard off-the-shelfcomponents as well as customized designsto suit your particular deposition equipmentneed. The e-Vap ® product line supportstwo distinct evaporation methods: the firstbeing thermal or resistive evaporation andthe second being electron beamevaporation.Resistive EvaporationThe Re-Vap resistive sources are by farthe most economical and reliable methodof depositing thin films onto surfaces. Ingeneral terms, electric current passesthrough a resistive element that generatessufficient heat to melt and evaporatevarious coating materials. Materialscommonly evaporated include iron, nickel,aluminum, copper, tin, silver, gold andchrome. Three basic resistive elementdesigns are offered: filament coil, metal foiland oxide crucible types. Filament coildesigns are the most popular. All resistiveelements are relatively inexpensive andcan be discarded after each use or afterseveral uses.Electron Beam EvaporationMDC offers an unprecedented selection ofelectron beam evaporation sources andcontrol electronics. Electron beamevaporation is the most versatile means ofvacuum evaporation and deposition. Thistechnique allows the production of thin filmcoatings from pure elements, numerousalloys and compounds. Electron beamevaporation offers several advantages overcompeting processes including precisecontrol of low or high deposition rates,excellent material utilization, sequential &co-deposition and uniform low temperaturedeposition. It also offers relatively highevaporation rates, freedom from sourcecontamination, precise film compositionsand cooler substrate temperatures. Thematerials used for evaporation areavailable in near limitless shapes andforms, the most common being pellets,slugs and disks. Since the 1950s, thedevelopment of higher performance filmsand complex coating processes has beenobstructed by the lack of modern electronbeam evaporation equipment andtechnology.

e-Vap ®Introduction<strong>Thin</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Deposition</strong><strong>Thin</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Deposition</strong><strong>Thin</strong> film deposition of metallic, insulating,conductive and dielectric materials playsan important role in a large number ofmanufacturing, production and researchapplications. Resistance heating, sputteringand electron beam are the processes mostwidely used. Techniques employed toperform these processes differ in degree ofsophistication and quality of film produced.A resistance heated evaporation source isrelatively simple and inexpensive, but thematerial capacity is very small. Sputterdeposition can be used to coat large areasand complex surfaces in productioncoating environments utilizing time andpower for rate control.Electron beam evaporation is the mostversatile means of vacuum evaporationand deposition. This technique allows theproduction of thin film coatings from pureelements, including most metals, as wellas numerous alloys and compounds.Electron beam evaporation offers severaladvantages over competing processesincluding precise control of low or highdeposition rates, excellent materialutilization, co-deposition and sequentialdeposition systems and a uniform lowtemperature deposition. Electron beamoffers higher evaporation rates, freedomfrom contamination, precise rate control atvery low deposition levels, precise filmcomposition and cooler substratetemperatures. The materials used forevaporation are available in near limitlessshapes and forms, the most commonbeing pellets, slugs and disks. Since theintroduction of electron beam evaporationin the 1950s, the development of higherperformance films and complex coatingprocesses has been delayed by the lack ofmodern electron beam equipment andtechnology. MDC’s e-Vap ® product linehas taken this challenge head-on andprovides electron beam evaporationsources and control electronics thatincorporate leading edge technologiesunmatched in the industry.<strong>Thin</strong> <strong>Film</strong> Applications<strong>Thin</strong> film applications requiring electronbeam evaporation are continuallyincreasing. Applications are found in themedical, metallurgical, telecommunication,micro-electronic, optical coating andsemiconductor industries. Electron beamevaporation sources are employed in theproduction of a multitude of low and hitechproducts including: sunglasses,camera lenses, optical filters, infrareddetectors, superconductors, automotivedecorative trim, costume jewelry, corrosionresistant surfaces and many others.Electron beam deposition is ideal forresearch and production applications dueto its widespread material availability,efficient material utilization and unmatchedfilm purity and uniformity.e-Vap ® Product LineThe e-Vap ® product line is as vast as theapplications requiring electron beamevaporation. Each and every e-Vap ®source is designed to meet or surpass thestringent requirements put forth by thevacuum coating world. As a leader andinnovator in this field, MDC holds variouspatents in electron-beam evaporationtechnology. Two notable patents includeU.S. patent numbers 5,418,348 and5,473,627. The first is for MDC’s uniqueelectron source design, which incorporateshigher material capacity with adramatically smaller source footprint. Thesecond, for an ingenious coolant deliverysystem incorporated into MDC’s UHV multipocketrotary sources. e-Vap ® electronbeam sources are available in six basicsizes, called Frames, which canaccommodate small research as well aslarge production coating requirements withcrucible capacities from 2cc to 400cc. Thesources are offered individually or ascomplete turn-key, flange-mountedsystems with all necessary serviceconnections, including fluid and electricalfeedthroughs. These state-of-the-artevaporation sources are powered andcontrolled with equally advanced solidstate switching power supplies, beamsweepers and control electronics. Thehighest rated power supply is capable of a15,000 Watt output at negative 10,000Volts, fits on a standard 19" rack, is only10-1/4" tall and weighs 100 pounds.Flange-mounted units are factoryassembled and tested including allfeedthroughs. A range of standard optionsinclude a watercooled collimator roof, astepper motor indexer and aprogrammable XY sweep controller.Miniature Evaporation SystemsMiniature evaporation systems include thee-Vap ® 100, a precision wire fed electronbeam source designed specifically fordepositing monolayer thin films in ultrahighvacuum environments. It can depositrefractory metals at an atomic level.e-Vap ® 3000 is a 2cc capacity, miniatureelectron beam evaporation system with a3kW power supply. This is a versatiledeposition tool used for thin film coatingprocesses in high and ultrahigh vacuumenvironments. The e-Vap ® 3000 systemevaporates virtually all rare earth refractoryand dielectric materials. It providesresearchers a simple, relatively low-costmeans of depositing high purity thin filmcoatings.Re-Vap resistive heater sources are alsopart of the miniature product line. Thesesources are available with filament boatsor coils and oxide crucibles. Re-Vap sources are by far the most economicalmethod of depositing thin films.Evaporation MaterialsMDC e-Vap ® sources are rugged, reliableand easy to maintain.

Materials commonlyevaporated using resistive heating include iron, nickel, aluminum,copper, tin, silver, gold and platinum. Re-Vap resistiveevaporation can be used for decorative metallizing as well asdemanding research applications. Three basic resistive elementdesigns are offered: filament coil, metal foil boat and oxide crucibletypes. Filament coil designs are by far the most popular. Re-Vap heater elements are economical and disposable. They can be discardedafter each use to prevent material contamination.coil. To minimize dripping of the molten material, the filament coiltemperature must be increased rapidly to 1200-1500°C. Using thistechnique, the molten material will climb or cling to the hot wire andvaporize efficiently. Another type of element coil is the filament basket,used to evaporate pellets or chips of materials which either sublimeor do not wet the filament wire upon melting. If wetting occurs,the coils of the basket are shorted and the temperature of the sourcedrops.Metal foil boat type resistive elements are yet another choice forsmall evaporation applications. Metal foil boats are made from thinrefractory metal stampings, usually tungsten, molybdenum or tantalum.These boats have dimples which hold the evaporation material.Their miniature size and small capacity make them ideal for smallevaporation jobs. Metal foil boats operate at very high temperaturesand may cause alloying to occur with certain types of evaporationmaterials. Wetting of the metal surface by the molten evaporant isdesirable in the interest of good thermal contact, however, themolten metal will lower the electrical resistance of the foil in the meltarea, thereby causing a drop in temperature. This problem can beeliminated by using a boat which has been coated with a thin layerof aluminum oxide. The oxide coating will not allow wetting of themolten metal evaporant to the metal foil element.Crucible heaters are an open circular wound filament which allowcrucibles to be inserted inside the windings. The crucibles are commonlymanufactured from alumina, carbon, quartz and boron nitride.Crucibles have insulating properties which form a thermal barrierbetween the filament and melt, allowing a uniform melt temperature.Crucible evaporation is very stable because of its uniform heating. Awide range of low to moderate temperature metals like palladium,tin, selenium, arsenic, indium and organic materials evaporate wellfrom crucibles. Crucibles are less prone to failure compared to metalfoil boats because of the complete isolation between the evaporantand the heater element, thus eliminating shorting or alloying.Re-Vap 900 Watt Power SupplyRe-Vap coiled filaments are typically three stranded tungsten wireslooped into coils. Multistrand filaments are generally used becausethey offer a greater surface area than single wire filaments. Underthese conditions, the evaporant charge should be small comparedwith the mass of the filament. The filament can hold up to 1 gram ofevaporant material which is formed into staple-like shapes and hungon the central helix of the tungsten filament. Upon melting, the evaporantwets to the filament and is held in place by surface tension.Spreading of the molten evaporant across the wire is desirable toincrease evaporation surface area. This is accomplished by distributingthe initial charge evenly over the entire length of the filament004221-2.7x3.64 Phone 800-443-8817 www.mdcvacuum.com MDC <strong>Vacuum</strong> Products Corporation

The current passing through a resistive element (filament, boat,etc.) is produced by a unique high current, low voltage switch-mode highfrequency power supply that produces ample amounts of current needed toevaporate materials such as iron, nickel, aluminum, copper, silver, gold andplatinum. Silicon-monoxide, magnesium fluoride, as well as zinc selenideare readily evaporated.Re-Vap Power Supply & ControllerMDC has taken advantage of its extensive knowledge of high frequencysolid-state switching power supplies by incorporating that technology into apatent applied high-powered 3000 watt Re-Vap power supply. Tremendoussize and weight reductions are the result. With overall dimensions of 5" x 8"x 13" and a total weight of 20-pounds, the power supply can be mountedunderneath the vacuum coating system just inches away from the high currentfeedthroughs. The power supply is only one-eighth the size and onetenththe weight of a typical 3000 watt resistive power supply. Two uniqueadvantages include higher power efficiency and floor space savings. Powerefficiency is greater because the output cable length is reduced with aresulting lower power loss. The Re-Vap controller is a half-rack width displaymodule displaying the current, voltage, safety interlock and status/operationindicators. For automated coating processes, it may be connected to arate/thickness controller for precise control. Power can also be controlledthrough the front panel or with the hand-held remote control.CoolingInput powerPower outputOption:CableWeightDimensionsAir cooled208/220/240 VAC, Single-phase, 50/60 Hz, 25 Amperes0 to 5 VDC @ 600 amps0 to 10 VDC @ 300 amps6-foot cable included30 lb shipping5" W x 8" H x 13" DRe-Vap clamp, <strong>High</strong> Current feedthrough and Z-bar extensionsThe Re-Vap positive clamping method is universally designed for heavy useand quick-change capability.

The e-Vap ® 100 source evaporates high temperature refractory metalsincluding Tantalum, Molybdenum and Tungsten and most other materialsmanufactured in wire form. <strong>High</strong> temperature materials are notreadily evaporated using Knudsen or Effusion cells, making thee–Vap ® 100, because of its miniature size, an excellent PhysicalVapor <strong>Deposition</strong> (PVD) evaporation source. The elements table at leftdepicts calculated deposition rates for various pure materials.Thee-Vap ® 100 source is constructed with refractory metals for rapidequilibrium with minimal outgassing, to withstand elevated temperatureswithout the need for water cooling and to reduce the possibilityof contamination in sensitive UHV applications. The source has anoutgas mode to allow vacuum conditioning of the evaporation head.This degas feature allows heating of the e-Vap ® 100 head to driveoff any adsorbed contaminant. The source is mounted on a 2-3/4"Del-Seal CF flange. Power connections are made via four SHV coaxialconnectors clearly labeled for filament positive, filament negative,anode and screen inputs. Maintenance on the evaporation head ismade simple with easy replacement of all key components.The e-Vap ® 100 power supply incorporates all switching technologyfor the high-voltage and filament sections. This translates to a smallerand lighter package, greatly improved arc-suppression and betteremission current control. Arcs are suppressed in the order ofmicroseconds rather than the millisecond response in other 50/60Hzsystems.

e-Vap ®Modular Evaporation SourcesVertical Flange Mounted SourceMDC has eliminated the difficulties of flange mounting electronbeam sources. The effort that goes into designing and fitting asource to a vacuum coating chamber has been done for you with theintroduction of standard vertical flange mounted evaporationsources. The flanged assembly includes one 7cc electron beamsource with all water and electrical connections. This type of flangemounted system is typically installed vertically through the bottomside of a chamber. The compact footprint of these flanged evaporationsystems requires only one port flange for installation. A popularoption commonly ordered with these systems is a water-cooled roof,which mounts directly above the e-Vap ® source. The water-cooledroof acts as a heat barrier between the source and substrate andalso prevents vapor condensation on chamber walls.The watercooled roof is fitted with a deposition port, angled towardsthe substrate, which yields excellent deposition uniformity, evenwhen source to substrate centerlines are offset. The single-pocketsource comes standard with a 7cc capacity crucible. The sameassembly can be fitted with larger capacity sources including 15, 25and 40cc versions. To order the larger volume crucible option addone of the three option numbers to the end of the assembly partnumber. Vertical systems purchased with a source control modulewill be fitted with flange-mounted filament transformers.MOUNTING FRAME SOURCE COOLING SOURCE WEIGHTFLANGE SIZE TYPE & VOLUME ROOF NUMBER POUNDSREFERENCEPARTNUMBERPRICE$10" DEL-SEAL 1 ONE POCKET 7cc NO 990598 5010" DEL-SEAL 1 ONE POCKET 7cc YES 990598 50EV-FMP-10VEV-FMP-10RV9925119925131475015500Optional Accessories<strong>Thin</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Deposition</strong>OPTION -01Pneumatic ShutterShutters mask off the vapor stream betweensource and substrate.

This shutter is a two position shutterwhich includes a 120VAC solenoid.OPTION -06 TO -08Custom Crucible VolumeThe standard volume for a single-pocket crucibleis 7cc. For single pocket volumes of 15,25 or 40cc add option -06, -07 or -08 respectively.OPTION -04Custom Source PositionSource position is the distance from the sourceface to mounting flange seal face. This dimensionis standard at 6" for all vertical systems.Customer chamber layout or specificationsmay dictate a custom distance. Source positionsbetween 6" and 10" are optional andavailable at the price listed bellow. Dimensionsoutside these limits must be quoted separately.OPTION -05Custom Roof PortsWatercooled roofs have three ports. A mainport directly over the source, which is usedfor the deposition process. A second port forthe crystal sensor is used to monitor depositionrate. A third port provides direct visualinspection of the source and beam through achamber viewport.

e-Vap ®Controls and MeasurementXY Programmable Sweep Controllere-Vap ® XY Programmable Sweep Controller with mouseDescriptionThe next generation e-Vap ® Programmable Sweep Controller has takenelectron beam sweep capabilities to a higher level in versatility and practicality.It combines years of customer feedback with the latest advances in electronicstechnology. It possesses profound advancements from its predecessor interms of functionality and ruggedness. It is designed with both the coatingengineer and coatingoperator in mind. Electronbeam control is dynamicallyprecise allowing theuser optimum ability todeposit dielectrics andmetals in the mostdemanding of applications.The strength of the sweepcontroller lies in its abilityto easily adapt to differentevaporation processWelcome Screen Displayrequirements, using its many expandable sweep patterns. Four predefinedsweep patterns and up to 95 additional user-defined patterns can bestored. The predefined patterns include CIRCLE, SPIRAL, FIGURE 8, andLINE patterns. Each of the 95 user defined patterns may consist of upto 208 XY points with a different beam dwell time for each beam point.The user interface includes a large, vibrant color LCD display with sixfunction keys and a smooth rolling adjustment knob. A handheld PS/2device/trackball is provided which allows beam maneuverability forcrucible material preparation and evaporation. For computer-automatedvacuum systems, a detailed rear panel digital I/O port along with astandard RS-232 interface allows access to the most important sweeperfunctions and status signals.

e-Vap ®Controls and MeasurementSweep Pattern TypesAll of these patterns may have their sweep characteristics andparameters highly modified. These parameters include SPEED, PHASE,and POWER PROFILE.SPEED is defined as the speed of which the beam travels to completeone cycle of a given pattern. The fundamental frequency of beam sweepis speed. SPEED settings are Fast, Medium, and Slow. Fast is consideredthe base time, Medium takes twice as long, and Slow takes fivetimes as long.PHASE is defined as angular pattern rotation per cycle. The pattern isrotated a few degrees after each sweep pattern cycle. PHASE settings areFast (50 degree steps), Medium (20 degree steps), Slow (10 degreesteps), and None.POWER PROFILE is defined as speed of the beam based on its distancefrom the center of the crucible. It allows the beam to sweep faster throughthe center of the crucible than at the outer edges. The parameter of apattern crossing a crucible too many times, thus resulting in “tunneling”of the material, may be adjusted to obtain “even” beam temperaturedistribution across the crucible surface. POWER PROFILE settings rangefrom 1 to 1/R 2 . A setting of 1 is considered as the beam dwell time, beingthe same for all points. A setting of 1/R 2 is considered the beam dwelltimes being four times greater on the outer edges of the crucible. Adjustingthe profile between 1 and 1/R 2 (twenty possible adjustments) is a newfeature for the sweep controller and adds coating process optimization tothis already valuable parameter.Select PatternCircle Pattern<strong>Thin</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Deposition</strong>The Select pattern allows the user to view patterns 1 through 99. Allpatterns may be started and/or edited from here as well.A CIRCLE pattern makes the beam sweep in concentric circles beginning atthe outer edge of the crucible and steps closer to the center of the cruciblewith each revolution. Upon reaching the center, a reverse cycle begins andthe beam sweep pattern continues.Spiral PatternFigure 8 PatternA SPIRAL pattern makes the beam sweep in a continuous spiral, beginning The FIGURE 8 pattern makes the beam sweep in a well-defined figure 8at the outer edge of the crucible and advancing toward the center and then path across the crucible.back out again.30 Phone 800-443-8817 www.mdcvacuum.com MDC <strong>Vacuum</strong> Products Corporation


e-Vap ®Controls and MeasurementDisplay ModesLine PatternSystem ParametersA LINE pattern makes the beam sweep in a straight line across the crucible.As in all the predefined patterns (circle, spiral, figure 8 and line), the sweepamplitude, speed, phase, power profile, and XY offset can be readily adjusted.There is also easy access to selecting patterns and scrolling throughdifferent screen menus.User PatternThe System Parameter screen allows the XY offset to be adjusted andstored. Linearity and contrast adjustments can be implemented from here aswell. Foreground and background color selections can also be made fromthis screen and will affect all subsequent patterns. The maximum allowablesweep amplitude current can be set here for the pattern. You can alsodesignate the coating machine’s name as well as adjust the sensitivity of themouse from this screen.User Pattern<strong>Thin</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Deposition</strong>User Pattern: Ninety-six (96) user-defined patterns, completely customizableby the user, can be designed and stored into the sweep controller for instantaccess. Each of the user-defined patterns can contain up to 208 beamlocation points. Each point can possess its own dwell time ranging from1 to 100mS. Patterns can be designed via front panel or through RS-232. Ifdesigned via the front panel, a color interactive matrix panel is displayed foruser feedback. It displays a crucible-shaped area showing all selected points(see the Interactive Matrix Panel screen shown on the left.) Custom namingof the generated pattern, adding and deleting points/patterns, and modifyingdwell times is all done on this same screen. A new feature of the sweepcontroller allows the user to access the SPEED function as well. Choices areFast, Medium, and Slow.MDC <strong>Vacuum</strong> Products Corporation www.mdcvacuum.com Phone 800-443-881731


e-Vap ®Controls and MeasurementCustomize the Pattern/Controller NameThe sweep controller has the ability to custom name each individual sweeppattern, whether pre-defined or user-defined. For example, when youchoose a specific pattern for a specific evaporation material, it may bedesirable to name the pattern after the evaporation material, such as“QuartzPattern” or “TitaniumPattern.”The sweep controller also has the ability to store a name for itself. If yourcoating machine is called “Coating Machine One,” you could customize thename of the sweep controller as, “CoatingMachine1.”The sweep controller also has the ability to assign a specific patternnumber (1 to 99) to a specific crucible number or crucible pocket. This isadvantageous for users who always have a certain evaporation material ina certain crucible pocket. This allows the user to have saved custom sweepand beam parameters for a given crucible pocket. This is beneficial sincemost deposition controllers have the ability to invoke crucible pocketsduring a coating cycle.Optical Coating Uniformity SolutionsHandheld PS/2 Mouse/TrackballRotary Pocket Evaporation Source with HF Emitter Assembly0<strong>Thin</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Deposition</strong>6030306090 901.0 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 0.0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0Maximize coating distribution with optimal sweep patternsThe XY Programmable Sweep Controller comes equipped witha handheld PS/2 mouse/trackball which allows activation, and XYoffsets and sweep amplitude adjustments from up to 6 feet away.• Sweep On/Off – click the left mouse button• DC On/Off – click the right mouse button• Edit XY Offset – roll the trackball in the desired direction• Edit Amplitude – highlight amplitude, roll the trackball up or down.Ordering InformationHidden Filament Emitter AssemblyDESCRIPTIONREFERENCEPARTNUMBERPRICE$XY PROGRAMMABLE SWEEP CONTROLLERHALF RACK SPACERXYS2-CEEV-HRS991344991062440012532 Phone 800-443-8817 www.mdcvacuum.com MDC <strong>Vacuum</strong> Products Corporation

e-Vap ®Evaporation Source AccessoriesCrucible LinersMDC recommends using crucible liners with all e-Vap ® sources. Crucibleliners provide thermal isolation between a target material and a source’swatercooled crucible. These liners offer improved thermal stability whilereducing the transfer of heat to the crucible. Liners provide the ability to easilyand quickly switch evaporant materials without removing the source forcleaning. They also reduce power requirements to achieve specific evaporationrates. Graphite and vitreous carbon are the most popular liner materialsdue to their low cost and favorable thermal properties. Vitreous carbon isproduced using a patented glazing process baked above 1400°C eliminatingany porosity in the carbon.
