Overview: The Cressington 108 Auto/SE Sputter Coater is designed for the deposition of thin metal layers, primarily gold, on samples to enhance their conductivity for scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Key Features:

• Automatic operation with digital controls
• Low-voltage magnetron sputter head
• Quick-change target system
• Optional thickness monitoring

Technical Specifications:

• Chamber Size: 150mm OD x 165mm height (5.9 x 6.5 inches)
• Target: 28mm diameter x 0.2mm thick
• Sputter Current: 10, 20, 30, or 40mA
• Power: 500VA
• Dimensions: Height 325mm
• Electrical: 100-120 or 200-240 VAC, 50/60Hz
• Argon Gas Pressure: 5-6 psi (0.4 bar)

Applications: Used in material science for SEM sample preparation, enhancing imaging quality by reducing charging effects.
