Glovebox Integration
Angstrom Engineering® leads the way in solving PVD process challenges using the controlled atmosphere of a glove box. This integration allows PVD and non-PVD processes to be connected within a controlled environment. Sensitive materials and substrates can be stored, moved from process to process and tested without exposure to the room environment. Total integration means that samples, in addition to the evaporated materials, can be loaded from the glovebox.
With a focus on system usability and accessibility, Angstrom Engineering® is ready to configure a complete system to meet your space and application requirements.
Your glovebox can be integrated with any number of processing and characterization equipment.
- These can include solar simulators, robotic and manual encapsulation systems, spin coaters, sensitive material storage, and substrate preparation.
- The deposition chamber needs only come into contact with an inert atmosphere, pump-down speeds are generally faster, and all fabrication is contained within a more controlled environment, resulting in fewer variables to contend with.

“At DuPont Displays, OLED displays are being fabricated for a variety of potential applications. Although solution processed displays is the goal, a variety of evaporated OLEDs have also been researched for comparison and controls. The Angstrom Engineering® EvoVac evaporator with multiple sources has been invaluable in this regard. Very good film uniformity and rate control can be achieved. Co-deposition from 2 or 3 sources is possible, and the system design is conducive to low compositional variability within the film and from run to run. In-situ mask changes are possible, allowing for multilayer patterned coatings without a vacuum break. The integration of different vapor deposition techniques into one chamber has been especially useful for research.”
