  3. Diffusion Ejector pump Inlet Schematic of the pump Cold surface operating pressure: 10-3 – 10-8 mbar Laminar flow Outlet Boiling oil G. Franchetti

  4. Inlet Pump principle: Pi The vacuum gas diffuses into the jet and gets kicked by the oil molecules imprinting a downward momentum Cold surface Po Laminar flow The oil jets produces a skirt which separate the inlet from the outlet Outlet Boiling oil G. Franchetti

  9. Capture Vacuum Pumps Getter Pumps (evaporable, non-evaporable) Principle Capture vacuum pumps are based on the process of capture of vacuum molecules by surfaces Sputter ion Pumps Cryo Pumps G. Franchetti

  10. Getter Pumps Gas Surface Solid Bulk G. Franchetti

  11. Definition of NEG Getters are materials capable of chemically adsorbing gas molecules. To do so their surface must be clean. For Non-Evaporable Getters a clean surface is obtained by heating to a temperature high enough to dissolve the native oxide layer into the bulk. T = Ta T = RT T = RT Native oxide layer -> no pumping Heating in vacuum Oxide dissolution -> activation Pumping P. Chiggiato NEGs pump most of the gas except rare gases and methane at room temperature

  12. Sorption Speed and Sorption Capacity C.Benvenuti, CAS 2007 G. Franchetti

  13. Choice of the coating technique for thin film: sputtering substrate to coat: vacuum chamber target material: NEG (cathode) driving force: electrostatic energy carrier: noble gas ions NEG composition • The trend in vacuum technology consists in moving the pump progressively closer to the vacuum chamber wall. • The ultimate step of this process consists of transforming the vacuum chamber from a gas source into a pump. • One way to do this is by “ex-situ” coating the vacuum chamber with a NEG thin film that will be activated during the “in situ” bakeout of the vacuum system.

  25. Liquid Manometers P2 Relation between the two pressure P1 h issue: measure precisely “h” by eye +/- 0.1 mm but with mercury surface tension depress liquid surface High accuracy is reached by knowing the liquid density Mercury should be handled with care: serious health hazard G. Franchetti

  26. McLeod Gauge First mode of use: The reservoir is raised till the mercury reaches the level of the second branch (which is closed) P2 Closed Δh h0 Quadratic response to P2 Second mode of use: keep the distance Δh constant and measure the distance of the two capillaries  linear response in Δh G. Franchetti

  27.
