=E-Beam Evaporator (Temescal)=


The Temescal is a system for depositing metals by electron-beam evaporation. In e-beam evaporation, the deposition is line-of-sight directed from the source, which means it will coat only the surface of the sample facing directly towards the source. This makes it very useful for example for metals for lift-off. The system also has an ion source for in-situ Argon sputtering that can be used either for cleaning samples prior to deposition or to modify the film during deposition.
