We have released dedicated remote management software "IntelliLink" for the nanoPVD-S10A magnetron sputtering system, the nanoPVD-T15A metal/organic film deposition system, and the nanoPVD-ST15A composite thin film experimental system. In addition to the control software "IntelliDep," which allows centralized management of equipment operation and film formation control via the included 7" touch panel, the new optional IntelliLink enables remote management from a Windows PC. With IntelliLink, almost all operations, except for the main controls of the equipment (vacuum pumping, vent operation, interlock monitoring), can be performed from the PC. (1) System live monitoring (equipment operation status monitor) - Chamber pressure, MFC flow rate settings - Film thickness display, settings, calibration - Stage rotation, heating, shutter opening and closing operations (2) Error analysis (3) Recipe creation, saving, uploading (4) Data logging, CSV format output → Data sharing with other devices ◉ Connect to the equipment's rear Ethernet port using the included USB cable.

Compact and space-saving! Ideal for organic thin film development, all processes such as deposition, sputtering, and annealing can be seamlessly performed within a glove box. In the development processes of organic EL, organic thin film solar cells, and graphene/2D materials (two-dimensional layered inorganic nanomaterials such as transition metal dichalcogenides), it is necessary to handle samples in an inert gas atmosphere isolated from oxygen and moisture. By housing the PVD chamber within the glove box, a compact and space-saving "oxygen and moisture-free" experimental environment for organic film applications is achieved. 【Features】 ◉ A series of processes such as PVD film deposition, spin coating, and hot plate baking can be performed seamlessly within the glove box without exposing them to the outside air. ◉ Space-saving: The chamber does not protrude from the back, so it does not take up space. 【MiniLab Models】 ◉ MiniLab-026 (26ℓ volume): Metal/insulator/organic material deposition, sputtering, RF/DC etching, annealing ◉ MiniLab-090 (90ℓ volume): Metal/insulator/organic material deposition, sputtering, RF/DC etching, annealing

Equipped with various conditions necessary to create a highly uniform "high-quality" thin film required in research and development settings. The nano series is a high-performance device that condenses functionality into a compact body. It employs a robust and highly airtight stainless steel chamber that ensures a high vacuum environment and sufficient T/S adjustment distance, which are essential elements for high-quality film formation with minimal defects. Additionally, all models share the IntelliDep software, which allows anyone to operate the system regardless of their level of expertise, thanks to its intuitive and easy-to-understand touch panel interface. 【nano Benchtop Compact Thin Film Experimental Equipment】 ◉ nanoPVD-S10A: RF/DC Magnetron Sputtering Device ◉ nanoPVD-T15A: Organic Film and Metal Film Deposition Device ◉ nanoPVD-ST15A: Mixed Deposition and Sputtering Composite Thin Film Experimental Device ◉ ANNEAL: Wafer Annealing Device ◉ nanoCVD: Graphene/CNT Synthesis Device ◉ nanoEM: High Vacuum EM Coater * For other detailed specifications, please contact us.
