Material & Engineering Overview

Prepared specifically for high-vacuum electron-beam and resistive thermal evaporation, our 5N (99.999%) / 5N5 aluminum (Al, CAS 7429-90-5) deposition materials undergo vacuum degassing or high-temperature sintering to eliminate trapped volatiles and micro-voids that cause melt spitting and pinhole film defects.

Use intermetallic BN/TiB2, vitreous carbon, or Al2O3/BN e-beam crucible liners, or multi-strand twisted tungsten wire coils/boats for resistive thermal wetting. Supplied in cleanroom argon-flushed containers by weight (50 g to 1,000 g lots) or piece count, accompanied by the manufacturer's batch trace-impurity Certificate of Analysis.

Standard Shipment Documentation: Manufacturer Lot COA (ICP-OES / GDMS trace metal ppm breakdown for Al) and net-weight sealed lot label.

Technical & Procurement FAQ

Which crucible liner or boat is recommended for evaporating aluminum (Al)?
Use intermetallic BN/TiB2, vitreous carbon, or Al2O3/BN e-beam crucible liners, or multi-strand twisted tungsten wire coils/boats for resistive thermal wetting.
How should Al evaporation granules/pellets be pre-conditioned in the chamber?
Sweep a low-power defocused e-beam or low resistive boat current across the charge behind a closed shutter until chamber base pressure recovers before ramping to deposition rate.
What lot sizes are available for TB-EV-AL?
Standard research packs are quoted in 50 g, 100 g, 250 g, 500 g, and 1 kg sealed containers with full batch COA.
