This material requires specific evaporation source hardware for optimal performance. Compatibility with E-beam hearth liners or metal boats must be confirmed before use.
- Evaporation Source Compatibility: The Cu2O powder must be loaded into an E-beam hearth lined with graphite, Al2O3, or BN, or into a W, Mo, or Ta boat for thermal evaporation.
- Evaporation Method Preference: E-beam evaporation is the recommended method; thermal evaporation requires a quotation request and may have different performance characteristics.
- Melting Point Constraint: The melting point of 1235°C determines the required evaporation temperature and must be matched to the source hardware.
- Z-Ratio Calibration: The Z-ratio of 1.00 must be used for quartz crystal microbalance thickness monitoring during deposition.
- Density Consideration: The density of 6 g/cm³ affects the material loading calculation and film thickness estimation.
What is the significance of the 16 nm particle size for Cu2O evaporation in e-beam systems?
The 16 nm particle size is specified to support consistent source loading and controlled evaporation in e-beam systems. The product's fine powder form is designed to facilitate packing density in the hearth and reduce spitting, with e-beam performance rated as Good. Compatible liners include graphite, Al2O3, or BN, as stated in the technical specifications.
Can this Cu2O powder be used in a thermal evaporation boat, or is it limited to e-beam systems?
E-beam evaporation is the preferred method for this Cu2O powder, using a hearth with graphite, Al2O3, or BN liner, or a W/Mo/Ta boat. Thermal evaporation is possible by RFQ (request for quotation). The material's melting point of 1,235°C and density of 6 g/cm³ should be evaluated for thermal boat compatibility, as these parameters influence evaporation behavior.
What safety precautions are required when handling 16 nm Cu2O nanopowder for evaporation?
As a nano-sized powder (16 nm), Copper Oxide (Cu2O) should be handled in a fume hood or with adequate ventilation to avoid inhalation of airborne particles. The product listing notes that a safety data sheet (SDS) is available for review. Standard laboratory PPE including gloves, safety glasses, and lab coat is recommended, and users should assess dust explosion risks based on their specific environment.
This Cu2O powder (99.99%, 16 nm) is specified for e-beam evaporation with good performance when using graphite, Al2O3, BN, or W/Mo/Ta liners; thermal evaporation requires RFQ. The high purity and controlled particle size support consistent thin-film deposition, but compatibility with deposition hardware must be confirmed before ordering.
Positive
- High Purity (99.99%): The 99.99% purity specification minimizes contamination in deposited films, supporting reliable and reproducible thin-film properties for research applications.
- Controlled Particle Size (16 nm): The powder form with 16 nm particle size enables consistent source loading and uniform evaporation behavior, critical for achieving stable deposition rates.
Trade-offs
- Specific Liner Requirements: Good e-beam performance requires use of graphite, Al2O3, BN, or W/Mo/Ta liners; compatibility with other liner materials is not guaranteed, limiting direct substitution.
- Thermal Evaporation Not Standard: Thermal evaporation is available only by request for quotation, requiring additional engineering evaluation and potential lead time, and is not directly supported from stock.
