Plasma Cleaner

TEM Samples & Holders Cleaning

Exposure of TEM holders or samples to air or improper storage can lead to the generation of organic contamination. If introduced into the TEM chamber, this contamination not only affects image quality but also pollutes the TEM chamber.

The IC150 Plasma Cleaner utilizes an RF radio-frequency power supply to ionize incoming air. The resulting oxygen radicals, ozone, and oxygen plasma oxidize organic contaminants on the sample's surface through chemical reactions. This process generates gases like CO2 and H2O, which are then pumped out by the vacuum system, effectively achieving the goal of cleaning organic contamination from sample holders or sample surfaces.

 

TEM Grids & Samples Hydrophiling

Plasma generated by IC150 will interact with the sample surface, which can increase the surface energy of the sample and change the surface from hydrophobic to hydrophilic.
