Description
The purpose of this purchase is to satisfy the needs of the Autonomous Discovery LDRD PRJ1012745 and get a CVD reactor (full assembly or kit version) for the synthesis of single crystal boron doped diamond (BDD) fully forward compatible with the autonomous operation vision of the project:
Microwave (2.45 GHz) Driven Chemical Vapor Deposition reactor or kit assembly with at least 2.5 kW of power, 5 kW is ideal. Present a large loading port to allow for, at a minimum, loading of 1 inch substrate holders, ideally this number should be two inch. Overall, something like a ICF152 is ideal to allow for easy loading and unloading of a 2” Mo puck substrate holder. Vacuum gate valve on the main ICF152 loading port. Have the ability to automatically tune the microwave power delivery, while being integrated with a circulation, dummy load, and waveguide assembly. Present multiple ICF70 viewports (at least 8) for future in-situ characterization. At least four of those should be placed at an angle for future in-situ ellipsometry integration. Present MFC configuration to allow for synthesis of BDD: four MFCs configured for H2, CH4, O2, and a flexible final H2 MFC for the boron precursor. Pressure controller with associated gauges PLD controller and process software with associated control computer and electronics. Overall, fully automated recipe/computer driven operation is critical.
