Strontium Evaporation Pieces 99.9%, 1-10 mm ATOMFAIR®

This material requires inert atmosphere handling to prevent oxidation during storage and loading. Deposition must be performed using Ta/Mo/W boat or crucible with thermal or low-power e-beam methods to achieve consistent film quality.

• Environmental Sensitivity: Store and handle strontium pieces under inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or glovebox) to prevent oxidation and moisture contamination.
• Source Material Compatibility: Use only boats or crucibles made of tantalum, molybdenum, or tungsten for evaporation to avoid chemical reaction with the strontium melt.
• Deposition Method: Apply thermal resistive evaporation or low-power electron beam evaporation as the recommended methods; high-power e-beam may cause material splattering.
• Process Parameter Matching: Match the evaporation source hardware and process parameters to the material's melting point (769°C) and Z-ratio (1.00) for consistent film deposition.

This procedure outlines the safe handling and evaporation of strontium pieces under inert atmosphere. Follow these steps to load and deposit the material using thermal or low-power e-beam methods.

Required Equipment: Ta/Mo/W boat or crucible, Inert atmosphere glovebox or chamber, Thermal or low-power e-beam evaporation system

1. Confirm Specifications
   Confirm the material purity, form, size range, and deposition source compatibility before ordering to ensure proper match.
2. Transfer to Inert Atmosphere
   Transfer the strontium pieces to an inert atmosphere environment (e.g., argon-filled glovebox) for handling to prevent oxidation.
3. Load into Source
   Load the strontium pieces into a tantalum, molybdenum, or tungsten boat or crucible, ensuring even distribution for uniform evaporation.
4. Set Evaporation Parameters
   Set the evaporation system to thermal resistive or low-power electron beam mode, adjusting parameters based on the material's melting point and Z-ratio.

Strontium (Sr) evaporation material supplied as 99.9% pure pieces in 1–10 mm size range, suitable for thermal or low-power e-beam deposition using Ta/Mo/W boats or crucibles with inert handling. The available pack sizes (100g–1kg) support varied laboratory throughput requirements, but buyers must confirm deposition source compatibility and handling protocols before ordering.

Positive

• Defined purity and particle size: 99.9% purity and 1–10 mm piece size enable reproducible loading and consistent evaporation behavior in vacuum deposition systems.
• Broad source and method compatibility: Compatible with Ta/Mo/W boats or crucibles for thermal/resistive evaporation and low-power e-beam, offering flexibility in deposition hardware selection.

Trade-offs

• Reactive material requires inert handling: Strontium is air-sensitive; the supplied inert handling package is necessary to prevent oxidation or contamination during storage and loading.
• Mandatory procurement verification: Buyers must confirm model, purity, form, size range, pack size, and deposition-source compatibility before quotation, adding a pre-purchase validation step.
