About this manual
The VTC-2D is a small‑scale DC plasma magnetron sputtering coating instrument designed for laboratory metal‑film deposition. It includes a 500 W/600 V DC power supply, a 2‑inch water‑cooled sputtering head, a quartz vacuum chamber, a vacuum pump, and a temperature controller. Optional accessories such as a 1‑inch sputtering head and a molecular pump are available.
The system features a rotatable, heated sample stage (diameter 50 mm, up to 2‑inch substrates) with rotation speeds of 1‑10 rpm and a maximum temperature of 700 °C (±1.0 °C). A quartz‑vibrating film thickness monitor provides real‑time thickness measurement with 0.10 Å resolution. Safety notes advise using high‑purity inert gases (>5N) and optional gas‑purification or RF power for non‑conductive targets. This manual is written in Chinese.
