MB ProVap 7
The MB-ProVap-7 is our large chamber research and development tool for thin film deposition under vacuum conditions. The large size chamber offers additional space for more sources and optional accessories such as substrate heating, substrate cooling and advanced mask holder solutions. The rectangular chamber design also offers additional pump configurations such as more powerful turbo-molecular and cryo-pumps.
Instead of the automated chamber lifting mechanism of the MB-EcoVap, this system offers a rear mounted hinged service door which hermetically seals against ambient conditions. For the glovebox integrated version this unique feature allows maintaining and cleaning the interior of the deposition tool without contaminating the inert conditions inside the connected glovebox.
The space saving sliding front door offers an ergonomically optimized access to all components located inside the MB-ProVap. Procedures such as loading the sources, mounting the substrate and cleaning the system after the deposition become very easy and convenient. The standard features of the MB-ProVap design separates this tool completely from other solutions which have not been originally configured for glovebox integration.
PROCESS DEVELOPMENT
From a process point, a larger chamber with its additional vacuum ports allows for additional sources to be integrated into the chamber and for the overall source arrangement to be optimized which enhances the achievable coating uniformity and process quality. All commonly available sources for RF and DC sputtering, thermal resistance evaporation, organic material coatings and E-Beam processes have been integrated and are successfully used from MBRAUN's growing global customer base.
In addition, a process team has been established at MBRAUN to consult and support customers to choose the appropriate chamber size and to find the optimum source configuration for each specific coating process. The in-house application lab equipped with a MB-ProVap-7G system and several state-of-the-art metrology tools offers the possibility to simulate and verify the process conditions of challenging coating.
Specifically for the ProVap series MBRAUN offers tailored solutions for demands which do not follow conventional requirements such as enhanced source control (multi-source co-evaporation), customized substrate masking, advanced heated/cooled substrate fixtures and many more.
