Highest performing laser ablation chamber on the market
The TwoVol2 is the highest performing ablation chamber on the market. Its features include a Typhoon purge, a stage return accuracy <1.5 µm and is compatible with the ESL193HE, ESL213, ESLfemto, imageBIO266 and the imageGEO193.
Optimal positional reproducibility over large working area
- <2 % RSD for a wide suite of elements in all positions in the chamber making the entire sample chamber usable.
- Standard chamber working area is 100 mm x 100 mm with large format version (150 mm x 150 mm) available allowing many or large samples.
Aerosol transport
- Unique Typhoon purge mechanism with dedicated bottom purge outlet for complete purge in <5 minutes – consume less gas and achieve faster time to result.
- Washout time of 700 ms for 2 orders of magnitude decay, tunable via addition of signal smoother or Dual Concentric Injector (DCI).
- Pinch valve for minimal aerosol disruption and easy cleaning compared to solenoids.
- Leak-free operation with no complex corner seal.
Unsurpassed stage return accuracy
- High precision cross-roller stages with direct, non-cantilevered stage mounting for consistent loading at all stage positions – less wear and tear on stages.
- Return exactly to the location of original pattern placement – analyze where you intend to.
- <1.5 µm short term stage return accuracy
- <4 µm long term stage return accuracy
- <1 µm long term stage return accuracy with ImageLock
