This evaporation material is designed for thermal/resistive deposition under vacuum using W/Mo/Ta filament, basket, coil, or boat sources. Deposition source geometry, process route, and melting point (232°C) must be matched to the material's wire form (2.0 mm diameter) and purity grade (99.999%) to achieve required film properties.
- Source Compatibility: The material is intended for thermal/resistive evaporation using W/Mo/Ta filament, basket, coil, or boat sources.
- Deposition Source Geometry: Deposition source geometry must be confirmed to accommodate the 2.0 mm wire diameter before ordering.
- Process Parameter Matching: Evaporation process parameters must be matched to the material's melting point (232°C) and film requirements.
- Purity Consideration: The 99.999% purity level is specified for high-purity thin-film deposition applications.
How does the Z-ratio of 0.724 for Tin (Sn) affect thickness monitoring during thermal evaporation?
The Z-ratio of 0.724 is a material-specific acoustic impedance factor used to calibrate quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) thickness monitors when depositing Tin. It corrects the frequency-to-thickness conversion for the acoustic mismatch between the quartz crystal and the deposited Tin film, ensuring accurate real-time thickness measurement. This value is explicitly provided in the product specifications for process setup.
What filament or boat materials are compatible with evaporating 99.999% Tin wire?
The product specification lists tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo), and tantalum (Ta) as compatible evaporation source materials for filament, basket, coil, or boat configurations. These refractory metals withstand the required evaporation temperature above the melting point of 232°C without reacting with molten Tin. Users should confirm that the source geometry accommodates the 2.0 mm wire diameter.
What handling and storage conditions are recommended for 99.999% Tin wire to maintain purity before deposition?
The product description advises reviewing the certificate of analysis and safety data sheet for specific handling recommendations. As a high-purity (99.999%) metal, it should be stored in a clean, dry environment to prevent surface oxidation or contamination. The wire form is supplied ready for use, and the melting point of 232°C and density of 7.28 g/cm³ are provided for process planning.
Tin (Sn) evaporation material in wire form (99.999% purity, 2.0 mm diameter) is suited for thermal resistive evaporation using common refractory metal sources. The low melting point (232°C) and Z-ratio of 0.724 require careful process calibration and thermal management, while the high purity minimizes contamination in thin-film applications.
Positive
- High Purity (99.999%): The 5N purity grade reduces trace metal contamination in deposited films, critical for electronic and optical thin-film applications.
- Compatible Wire Form: Wire diameter of 2.0 mm is compatible with standard thermal evaporation sources (W/Mo/Ta filament, basket, coil, or boat), facilitating direct loading.
Trade-offs
- Low Melting Point: The melting point of 232°C is relatively low, requiring careful temperature control to avoid rapid evaporation or source wetting, and may limit use in certain high-temperature processes.
- Z-Ratio Calibration Requirement: A Z-ratio of 0.724 necessitates recalibration of quartz crystal microbalance monitors for accurate film thickness control during deposition.
