Kruss Goniometer DSA 100

Measurement of wettability and contact angles for surface characterization (hydrophobic, hydrophilic, super-hydrophobic ...)

 For wettability and wall angles measurements

 Surfaces Characterization: hydrophilic, hydrophobic…

 High-quality instrument used for analyzing wetting and coating processes

 The Drop Shape Analyzer – DSA100 is a high-quality system solution for tasks in the analysis of wetting and adhesion on solid surfaces.

 From the basic unit for precise measurement of the contact angle to the fully automatic expert instrument for serial measurement of surface free energy (SFE).

 Flexible solutions for different tasks

 The investigation and optimization of wetting and adhesion behavior. With up to three axes for sample positioning, the sample is moved quickly and reproducibly to the measuring positions. Measurement of the contact angle with up to 8 liquids ensures maximum accuracy when determining the SFE.

 The pressurized double-dosing unit allows measuring the SFE extremely fast and reliable.

Quality down to the last detail

 The uniform LED illumination and the quality lens ensure high precision when displaying the drop for accurately measuring the contact angle or surface tension. Thanks to the large zoom range, even small drops appear with optimum width in the video image and can therefore be investigated reliably. A protection is provided for sensitive components and the troublesome effect of vibration have been minimized. The high-resolution camera, the lens and the syringes and storage vessels for test liquids are mounted in a robust, enclosed housing.

 The position of the drop in the image remains unchanged when the viewing angle is adjusted.

Comprehensive analysis of solids and liquids

 The DSA100 measures the surface tension of liquids using the Pendant Drop method. The results can be used to analyze the relationship between the wetting of the solid and the liquid properties. The results help to provide a scientific picture of the interface contact, which can be used, for example, to optimize the adhesion and long-term stability of coatings. Other solutions for measuring the liquid-liquid interfacial tension, for measurements at high pressures and for surface rheology make the DSA100 a universal instrument for interface research.

ADVANCE –Intuitive software solution for measurement tasks

 The simple operation of the instrument goes hand-in-hand with the clear user guidance of the ADVANCE software. The relevant functions for each particular step are arranged in tiles which display all elements necessary in the context. By avoiding the use of menus and pop-ups, ADVANCE saves any unnecessary clicks and time-consuming searches for hidden elements. Particularly comfortable is the programming of automatic sequences that integrate the software-controlled components of the DSA100 in complete sample analyses with maximum flexibility. Using these automation programs provides high reproducibility and reduces the user’s influence on the results to a minimum.

Tasks and applications

-Characterization of surface pre-treatment processes

-Investigation of the adhesion and stability of bonding and coating processes

-Investigation of coating substances in accordance with DIN 55660

EATON-AXCELIS GA 3204 is a medium current reactor. The possibility to use the materials in different states (gases, salts, metals and liquids) makes this equipment the unique tool in France because of its capability to implant very large range of the chemical species. In the standard mode, it is possible to implant the chemical species from 20kEv to 200 kEv. Recently, the implanter was equipped with deceleration module that makes possible the low energy implantation from 3kEv to 20kEV. One can perform the implantation at different angles to the substrate for 3D structures and with rotated samples and in the wide temperature range, from -10°C to 300°C. The implantation is often followed with the rapid thermal annealing to recover the crystal damage. Two RTA plates are using: Jipelec JetStar 100S and Anealsys One with the max temperature up to 1200°C. The implantation and the annealing are realized by a technician and SRIM simulation by an engineer. No possible “free” using for this tool.

In Ion Beam Etching (IBE), also known as Ion Beam Milling (IBM), an inert ion beam is used for pure physical sputtering of the sample material. This technique is commonly used for structuring metals or other materials which are not accessible to chemical etch processes. Reactive Ion Beam Etching (RIBE) uses reactive process gases to generate a reactive ion beam. Physical and chemical etch components and related selectivities may be easily varied by the energy of the ion beam. Finally Chemically Assisted Ion Beam Etching (CAIBE) uses an inert ion beam in a reactive gas background. Here the ions drive surface reactions with the absorbed reactive species. Based on these process features, ion beam etching might serve applications difficult to be addressed by common etch technologies. 

Generally ion beam milling is applied for materials which may not be etched on a chemical basis, like most metals used in MEMS manufacturing. As a second important feature, one may utilize the directed ion flux and the angle dependence of the milling rate. This way defined and/or variable side wall angles in microstructures may easily be generated. Also, by choosing a specific ion incident angle, process rates and selectivity may be optimized.

 The Laurell WS-650-23 B spin coater system will accommodate up to ø150mm wafers and 5" × 5" (127mm × 127mm) substrates, and features a maximum rotational speed of 12,000 RPM (based on a ø100mm silicon wafer).

 The WS-650 series is typically employed for Solvent, Base or Acid-based processing:

-Coating

-Etching

-Developing

-Rinsing-Drying

-Cleaning.

  The process controller allows operator interaction in real-time during the process execution including pausing time, stopping and continuing from that point.

 The housing for this system is made from a solid co-polymer blend which is able to resist solvents and strong acids and bases.

  The closed bowl design, coupled with the precision of the process controller, allows most coating materials to dry in a quiescent state, increasing uniformity and minimizing particle contamination.

 A proprietary labyrinth seal protects the motor and control electronics from chemical contamination. This seal provides the process chamber with Nitrogen purge and has been proven to be particle-free on a sub-micron level during field testing.
