Tergeo series tabletop plasma cleaners

Compact tabletop plasma cleaner designed for cleaning nanoscale samples, etching photoresist, activating functional groups on polymer, achieving hydrophilic or hydrophobic wettability, improving bonding strength and printability, promoting biocompatibility on medical devices. Integrated immersion & downstream plasma cleaning modes can clean wide range of samples from heavily contaminated electron optics apertures to delicate samples like graphene, carbon nanotube, diamond like carbon and TEM samples on holey carbon grid.

The Tergeo tabletop plasma cleaner is available in three configurations

1）Tergeo: Basic low cost version.

2）Tergeo-Plus: It’s a larger version of the Tergeo plasma cleaner designed for samples up to 150mm wide.

3）Tergeo-EM: Plasma cleaner for SEM & TEM sample cleaning, grids and TEM holders cleaning. Designed to remove hydrocarbon contamination on SEM & TEM samples.

Key Features:

•  Dual plasma sources in one system. Immersion plasma source for aggressive surface treatment, photoresist etching. Remote plasma source for gentle contamination removal and surface activation on delicate samples.

•  Plasma sensor for real time quantitative plasma strength measurement.

•  13.56MHz high frequency rf generator, pulsed operation, automatic impedance matching.

•  Intuitive touchscreen user interface with 20-recipe library, fully automatic design.                        Immersion mode plasma cleaning

•  MFC regulated gas delivery.

•  High purity quartz sample chamber and sample holder

Typical applications:

•     Cleaning before wire bonding, die attach, flip chip bonding process.                                                      Remote plasma cleaning mode

•     SEM/TEM sample cleaning for hydrocarbon contamination removal

•     Surface treat before biomedical coating and improve hydrophilicity of medical implants

•     Optics, glass and substrate cleaning before epoxy bonding

We understand the importance of consistency and repeatability for scientific research and production runs. Therefore, we integrated multiple process control technologies to monitor and control the critical parameters, such as plasma sensor, pressure sensor and automatic mass flow controller for gas input. The operation of Tergeo plasma cleaner is fully automatic. Intuitive user interface together with 7-inch touchscreen make the operation of a scientific instrument as easy as a smart pad. Imbedded microcontroller supports 20 customizable recipes. With advanced process control technologies, Tergeo series plasma treatment system can deliver repeatable performance in day to day operation for different users.
