Osmium Plasma Coater
Osmium Plasma Coater(OPC) is the plasma coating device that uses the DC glow discharge method to coat conductive thin film mainly for SEM samples.
Benefits of Osmium Plasma Coater
Operability
Osmium Conductive Film
Plasma-Polymerized
Naphthalene Hydrocarbon Film●
Simple Automatic Operation
(Only need to set the thickness of the film and then push start button)●
Detachable Osmium Reservoir
The sealed structure of the reservoir allows cryopreservation●
Easy Confirmation of The Remaining Amount
(A small view port allows confirmation of the remaining amount of the OsO4/naphthalene crystal.)●
Short Coating Time
(a few nm/a few seconds)●
High Security
(An interlock circuit is equipped.)●
No Granule
The osmium thin film is not granular.●
The microstructure of the specimen surface can be faithfully molded.
OsO4 will sublimate before coating process.●
No Heat Damage
The coating process is at room temperature. Thus, the specimen will not go through a heat process.●
No Electron Beam Damage
The melting temperature of Osmium is 2700℃, whick is much higher than the ones of Pt or Pd. So osmium conductive metal coating is not damaged nor deformed by heat when exposed to strong electron beam.●
No contamination
In the regative glow phase domain of the DC glow discharge, where only osmium metal molecules are positively ionized, highly concentrated positive ion osmium molecules adhere uniformly, deposit densely and form the thin layer in molecular level on the specimen which is electrically insulate.●
Toughness
The film can withstand the gallium ions that used in FIB(Focused Ion Beam) system.●
Heat-resistance
●
Insulation
●
No Granule
The plasma-polymerized hydrocarbon film is not granular.●
The microstructure of the specimen surface can be faithfully molded.
Naphthalene will sublimate before coating process●
No Heat Damage
The coating process is at room temperature. Thus, the specimen will not go through a heat process.●
No Electron Beam Damage
Principle
A small amount of osmium tetroxide(OsO4)gas / naphthalene gas(C10H18) is introduced into the small gas reaction vessel that equips with an anode plate and a cathode plate.
Then, in the gas reaction vessel, when a DC glow discharge is generated under a thin sublimation gas pressure, the osmium metal molecules excited by the collision of electrons instantaneously become plasma between the two electrodes. The positive column and the negative glow phase are separated, and the blue-violet light of the negative glow phase emits.
At the same time, the positive ion metal molecules instantly adhere to the surface of the specimen, which is placed in the negative glow phase area on the cathode plate, and an osmium metal thin film/plasma-polymerized film(naphthalene) is formed.
With an osmium metal thin film on the surface of the SEM specimen, an extremely clear image can be obtained.Application

Technical data
OPC60A is used to coat conductive film for SEM, FE-SEM specimens.
OPC80T is used to coat conductive film for SEM, FE-SEM specimens and support film for TEM specimens. If you use OPC, you can coat osmium conductive film safety and easily.
You can operate OPC automatically.
As long as you coat osmium of a few nm in a specimen with OPC, the specimen can get enough conductivity. Because osmium conductive film can be coated extremely uniformly.
Besides osmium conductive film is no heat damage.
OPC is epoch-making equipment.
OPC80T can coat not only osmium conductive film but also naphthalene film.
Naphthalene film is non-conductive, so strong, medicine character-resistant, and heat-resistant.
Besides naphthalene film is applied as a support film.
Naphthalene film is also applied as a protective film of specimens for FIB(Focused Ion Beam Equipment).

Low current system and Mixed gas system
●Low current system The low current system uses the method of forming a film with a low discharge current using a method of applying a voltage from a high vacuum state where the concentration of OsO4 gas is low and glow discharge does not start. ●Mixed gas system The mixed gas system reduces the concentration of OsO4 gas by mixing an inert gas into the OsO4 gas, and facilitates the control of ultra thin film deposition by reducing the deposition growth rate.
It is also possible to discharge using only inert gas, and it has scalability to applications such as etching.
