The Leica EM SCD005 is a table-top sputter coater and produces very fine-grained, quality conductive films using precious metals: gold, gold/palladium, iridium, silver and platinum. Even large samples such as wafers and compact discs for industrial processes can be coated
The Leica EM SCD005 also offers single and multiple carbon thread evaporation for the production of conductive carbon films for X-ray microanalysis (EDX, WDX) and carbon reinforcement films on collodion or formvar coated specimen support grids.
