Eye Candy My Lab
Posted: Tue Aug 10, 2010 4:05 pm
So you guys can get a handle of what I do for a day job.
The pic following (I hope) shows the lab I spend most of my time in.
bottom of pic shows the 4 beam lines coming from the single ended 3MV accelerator left most beam line = PIXIE and proton microprobe where we can scan the proton beam over a sample to get elemental map, beam spot 10um
next beam line is associated with an ion implanter and 1kW E-Beam annealer-- this allows us to depth profile with RBS while doing implantations and subsequent annealings.
The third beam line is for NRA, RBS and external proton beam (through thin Be window) for samples incompatible with vacuum
the forth beam line is under construction for high resolution RBS we hope to get depth profiling down to 0.1nm or better] Vacuum in sample chamber for this is 2 x 10 to the minus 9 millibar..
Top of pic left to right dual ion implanter so two ion species can be implanted at once
next argon ion sputter system
old SEM rejigged with ultramodern image capture outputs 10meg tiff files
