Surface Science (UHV) Systems In addition to surface analysis components LK Technologies specializes in the design and construction of complete UHV systems which often combine several surface analysis methods from LK components as well as other manufacturers. Common elements of these systems are precision UHV chambers, a main pump (usually ion pump), an auxiliary pump (usually turbomolecular), a precision sample manipulator, a mounting framework with leveling feet and vacuum gauging. Optional components typically requested by the customer are a rapid sample introduction system (load lock) and bakeout control. Please contact LK for more information and to discuss your custom system requirements. Below we show several examples of systems supplied in laboratories worldwide.
