PICO brochure

UHP stands for Ultra High Purity. This designation applies to the glass vacuum chamber of our plasma systems, which can be borosilicate glass or quartz glass according to customer wishes. The UHP option is only available for the following systems: Femto, Pico and Nano.

Glass chambers are implemented in microwave systems and/or with applications, which require an ultra-pure surface. Normal stainless steel or aluminium chambers may sputter to a very small degree, like all metals in a plasma system, including the product treated. For most processes, this is not important and entirely negligible. The aluminium parts from the UHP plant are coated with AL2O3. Since the system does not have a stainless steel vacuum chamber, it is suitable for applications in which traces of chromium, nickel and iron are a disturbance.
