Modular construction from standard vacuum hardware makes custom variations or later modifications easy. Although this type of equipment is complicated in theory, it is mechanically quite simple and easy to use.
Reports indicate that our customers spent very little time getting their systems up and running.
Resolution of 1500 has been obtained without extensive tweaking or other techniques to enhance initial performance. Resolution of over 4000 has been obtained when used with our Shroud, Skimmer, Pulsed Valve and Egun. Sensitivity has so far been good with both pulsed beam and surface ablation experiments. It may have extra ports for access or supplemental pumping. An elevated potential liner can be provided if needed.
