DSCR
Desk Sputter and Carbon CoaterTurbo Pumped Desk Sputter and Carbon Coater
Sputter and carbon coater – DSCR is a compact coating system included both of sputter & carbon coater. The DSCR is able to sputter noble metals on the specimens and able to coat carbon film on the samples.

DSCR Desk Sputter and Carbon Coater
The DSCR desk SEM coater is a compact and powerful system designed for both sputtering noble metals (gold, palladium, platinum, and gold/palladium alloys) and thermal evaporation of carbon coatings. It is perfect for preparing non-conductive or poorly conductive specimens for electron microscopy imaging.
This rotary-pumped coater offers DC sputtering and carbon coating using either carbon fiber (thread) or carbon rods. The interchangeable heads make it a flexible, all-in-one solution for various coating applications.
Pulsed Carbon Fiber
Evaporation
The DSCR is able to perform pulsed carbon fiber evaporation. Short pulses provide more controlled deposition and significantly reduces the amount of debris associated with traditional carbon deposition.
Carbon Rod
Evaporation (Optional)
The DSCR could be equipped with carbon rod evaporator head (Optional). For this case an external 0-100 A high current power supply should be used instead of the internal high current power supply which is designed for carbon fiber evaporation.

Newly Designed Sample Holder
A new 4-inch rotating sample holder with an optional gear offset is designed for the system to increase the deposition area and the number of coating stubs in a run (Customizable for max. 50×1 mm stubs).
DSCR Touch Screen
DSCR, the desk SEM coater, is equipped with a 7” colored touch screen panel and full automatic control using a user-friendly software to control and adjust the deposition process data. The vacuum and coating sequence information can be observed as digital data or curves on the touch screen. The last 300 coatings information is saved on the history page.
DCT Sample Holder
The DSCR can be equipped with different sample stage configurations depending on the user requirements. The standard sample stage is rotatable with adjustable height and angle and can be changed easily. The rotary planetary sample stage is a good choice for uniform coating of porous specimens (Optional).
