Aparatuur

Setup for electrical and optical gas sensor characterization. The computer-controlled measurement complex includes gas mixing stations (based on Brooks mass flow controllers), Keithley sourcemeters for electrical measurements and an optical spectrometer for optical measurements. Available special gases include O₃, NO₂, CO, CO₂, NH₃, H₂S, SO₂, acetone and ethanol (ppb-to-ppm range), which can be tested in the background of Ar, N₂, O₂, or their arbitrary mixtures with the relative humidity between 0 and 90%. The majority of test gases are 5N purity and fed from cylinders or permeation tubes; ozone is generated before mixing.

Image

Setup for pulsed laser deposition of thin films includes two UHV deposition chambers, UV excimer laser (Coherent COMPexPro 205,
wavelength 248 nm), and equipment for in-situ process monitoring (Woollam M2000x spectroscopic ellipsometer, Andor Echelle spectrograph for plasma spectroscopy).
