Intermetallic Crucibles (BN-TiB2) for E-Beam Sources

Overview

  • Custom sizes available upon request.
  • Recommended for aluminum evaporation.
  • Intermetallic crucibles are both conductive and lubricious and are ideal for materials that have a tendency to creep up the sides of the crucible.

Common Causes of Crucible Breakage

  1. The ramp/soak levels are wrong for that material. A recipe for e-beam consists usually of two ramp/soak power levels. This allows for the gradual heating of the material to a point where deposition can start. When deposition starts there is a transfer of power control from the ramp/soaks to a PID loop control between the e-gun power supply and the quartz crystal controller. If ramp2/soak2 power level is not near the power level to hit the specified deposition rate (say 1 Angstrom/sec) this means the PID loop must try very hard or search very hard to try and get rate. Since the PID loop is in control of the power, power can oscillate dramatically (+90% to 0%) for a while before the PID loop finally gets the power at the right level to control at that 1 Angstrom/sec rate. Wild swings in power rapidly liquefy and then condense the material several times even before the deposition starts. This will crack any crucible. It is best to get the ramp2/soak 2 power level very close to the power needed to hit the desired rate. This way when the PID loop takes over control, it does not need to adjust power that much to hit rate - just a slight tweak. This prevents this rapid liquefy/condense process from occurring. So incorrect Ramp levels can definitely cause crucible cracking.

  2. The second reason is much easier - the user shuts the power supply off or has a very short ramp down time for power after the deposition is done. This causes the rapid solidification of the melt, and this stresses out the crucible liner.
