Cygnus® 2
Cygnus 2 Thin Film Deposition Controller provides exceptional value by combining the proven performance of INFICON thin film controllers with unique features, all designed for you to achieve the most from your OLED process.
Cygnus 2 uses our ModeLock frequency measurement system to provide stable, high-resolution rate and thickness measurement with an industry-leading rate resolution of .00433 Å/s every 1/10 second. No other quartz crystal controller has the performance, quality, and features of Cygnus 2, allowing you to make excellence repeatable.
FEATURES
- INFICON ModeLock technology ensures the most stable, highest resolution rate and thickness measurement available, even at very low rates
- Auto Z improves thickness accuracy by automatically determining the Z-ratio as material is deposited
- Up to six sources can be controlled simultaneously, independently or in any combination by one Cygnus 2, relieving the need for two or three controllers
- Color TFT LCD display makes it easy to see what’s going on with your process
- 10 Hz measurement
- +/-0.0035 Hz over 100ms sample
- USB data storage for screen shots, recipe storage and data logging
- Thickness summing of multiple sources
- Measurement rate averaging for low density, very low rate materials (up to 30 seconds for use with stable sources for very low rate OLED dopant material deposition)
- Display rate resolution of up to 0.001Å
- 4 meter XIU option provides the ability to use long in-vacuum sensor cables for large systems
- Non-deposit control allows for continuous source control as substrates are cycled through the deposition chamber
- 6 DAC outputs standard, 6 additional optional for source control, rate or thickness monitoring
- Optional Ethernet communications
- RoHS compliant
