DCA System at University of Texas Austin (UTA) continues to grow
DCA Instruments will be adding another reactor to the existing DCA UHV system for the Demkov Materials Physics Group at UTA in Spring 2019. The new custom-designed reactor will combine both MBE and sputtering techniques to provide precision atomic level interface control with rapid deposition rate.
Additional key features of the system include; a high-temperature heating stage with oxygen resistant heating element with motorised linear motion, gate valve isolation to allow independent pumping and bakeout for two effusion cells, and finally a mask deposition design that allow the mask and substrate holder to rotate in unison to minimise the shadow effect.
