Coater Leica EM ACE600 (LEICACOAT-STAN)

Detailed description:

High vacuum coater for deposition of conductive coatings on SEM and TEM samples. Processes are driven by bulit-in microprocessor control unit and are fully automatized. Process steps and parameters are set through a touch screen.
Equipped with Au sputter target and carbon thread evaporation source as standard.
Other targets for sputtering available only on request.
