This is the most common kind of MBE source. Radiative
heat from a filament surrounding the source crucible induces thermal evaporation
and produces a flux of source material towards the substrate. Source temperature
(and emitted flux) is regulated by means of a feedback loop between the
filaments external power supply and a thermocouple in contact with
the source crucible.
The standard cell is appropriate for low vapor pressure materials (700 to
1200°C).
* One uniform heating zone, robust single filament
* Compatibility with all common power units
* Wide range of crucible capacities
* Double parallel thermocouple
* Compatible with most MBE systems
* Optional integrated / cooling shutter
* Modular design
* Operating temperature range: 700°C - 1400°C
Average power consumption for small and large capacity cells
Innovative single filament
These are general purpose cells, but temperature is
not homogeneous within the crucible. Indeed, the temperature can vary strongly
(hundreds of degrees) between the bottom and the lip of the crucible ("Cold
Lip" effect). Nevertheless, this cell is widely used since it is easily
operated and needs only one power unit and PID control system.
ADDON has created a new type of single filament oven for standard effusion
cells, which decreases the temperature gradient by preferentially heating
the top of the crucible and improving the thermal efficiency. Thus spitting
and deposition around the top of the crucible are significantly reduced.
Thermocouple
The C Type (W/Re5/26%) is provided (except by special request). All ADDON
cells use double parallel T/C at each temperature measurement point. T/Cs
are spring loaded for a consistent thermal transfer.
