Bridgman Crystal Growth Furnace

Introduction

The crystal growth furnace is suitable for Bridgman method (crucible descent method), crystal growth under vacuum, protective atmosphere, or oxidizing atmosphere.

It can store up to 15 sets of process curves, including temperature, gas flow rate, crystal feeding speed (crystal growth rate), and can be switched arbitrarily. When crystal growth is complete, it provides alarm prompts, generates experiment reports, and exports data (including but not limited to temperature, gas flow rate, feeding rate, etc.).

Main Features

1. Unique internal gradient temperature zone program for easily finding required temperature gradients.
2. Grating ruler for real-time sample position detection and accurate measurement of sample displacement.
3. Unique high-low-speed switching mode for easy sample handling and satisfying both low-speed and high-speed crystal growth operations. Speed is continuously adjustable, with crystal growth speed ranging from 30 to 20,000 um/h.

Control SystemControl mode1. Sintering process curve setting: dynamically display and set curves. Multiple sintering processes can be pre-stored in the device, with each curve freely set. | 2. Scheduled sintering, achieving unattended sintering of process curves. | 3. Real-time display of sintering power, voltage, etc., and recording sintering data, which can be exported for paperless recording. | 4. Remote control implementation, real-time observation of equipment status. | 5. Temperature correction: Non-linear correction is performed throughout the sintering process based on the difference between the main control temperature and the sample temperature.
Crystal Growth Process SettingUp to 15 sets of process curves can be pre-stored, including temperature, gas flow rate, crystal feeding speed (crystal growth rate), and can be called arbitrarily. After crystal growth is complete, alarm prompts are provided, and an experiment report is generated and exported, including (but not limited to) temperature, gas flow rate, feeding rate, etc.
Temperature CorrectionNon-linear correction is performed throughout the system based on the difference between the main control temperature and the sample temperature (inquire customer for specific crystal growth temperature points for special verification)
Functional ImplementationApplicable to various crystal growth processes under vacuum, atmosphere, or air according to the Bridgman method (crucible descent method)
System ProtectionOver-temperature alarm, over-current protection, disconnection prompt
Product Configuration1 reaction chamber, 5 meters of nichrome wire, 1 manual (random tools, etc.)
Service ItemsTransportation and insurance, packaging, installation and technical service fees; 12 months warranty, 24 months for touchscreen system, lifetime support.
