Advancing Precision in Plasma Enhanced ALD: The Role of the Hiden EQP Series
In materials science, precision in thin film deposition processes like Plasma Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition (PEALD) is paramount. The ability to control film thickness and composition with high accuracy depends significantly on understanding and controlling the plasma used in the deposition process. Here, the Hiden EQP Series emerges as an essential tool for in-depth plasma analysis, offering unparalleled insights into the components critical to deposition outcomes.
The Hiden EQP Series: A Closer Look at Its Capabilities
The EQP Series is engineered to provide detailed mass and energy analysis, capable of detecting ions, radicals, and neutrals. This capability is crucial for PEALD, where the chemical composition and energy distribution within the plasma directly
Quadrupole mass spectrometry is used extensively in the electronics sector to assess the functionality of surface materials and the performance of thin film structures. The surface interface characteristics of these materials are integral in optimizing the macrostructural properties of an optoelectronic device. Topographical defects in the glass coating of an organic photovoltaic (OPV) solar cell could impact the light-attenuation capabilities of junctions in the electronic structure, for example. Small variations in an optical coating could cause light to reflect rather than propagate through the substrate and be converted into electricity.
How to analyze the top nano layers of a material is a key question for manufacturers of electronic devices as their functionalities continue to grow more complex. Novel solar cells comprised of multi-junction nanocrystals are already beginning to display enhanced solar energy conversion over conventional p-n junction silicon OPVs. However, these
Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) have been making waves in the world of material science and gas separation research. These porous crystalline materials, assembled from organic building blocks, hold promise in applications ranging from carbon capture to fuel purification. To truly unlock the potential of COFs, we need advanced techniques that can provide instantaneous and precise feedback on their performance. Enter the Hiden HPR-40 DSA (Dissolved Species Analyzer) system with a twist — the regular HPR-40 membrane inlet gets a swap, making it an ideal tool for COF characterization. Let’s dive deeper into how this system can revolutionize COF research.
The LUMOS II is a stand-alone FT-IR microscope that excels in failure analysis, material research, and particle analysis.
The LUMOS II is compact, precise, and features ultrafast chemical imaging by FPA technology.
The benefits of FT-IR imaging and microscopy are too great to restrict access by cumbersome hard- and software. From the start, the LUMOS II was meant to make FT-IR imaging faster, easier, more accurate and reliable – and even more fun. Of course, this required Bruker to include new and improve upon proven technology
That's why Bruker tailored the LUMOS II, its software, and user interface specifically to the user. Beginners get perfect results in no time, while experts maintain total instrument control.
A residual gas analyser (RGA) is a crucial piece of equipment known as a mass spectrometer used in many industries to conduct high-sensitivity, real-time analysis. Gas analysers allow analysts to maintain a high level of quality control and gas monitoring by identifying the composition and quality of residual gases and vapour species. This post will examine why residual gas analysis is used in semiconductor production.
Semiconductor Production
Semiconductors are vital for digital products that help us communicate with people around the world. These are commonly used to make electronic chips, which are used in computer components and other electronic devices such as medical devices, smartphones and applications for the Internet of Things (IoT). However, as the demand for better technology grows, the need for high-quality semiconductors will also increase, and their processes will need to become more streamlined.
Gases are used throughout the many stages of the semiconductor

What is a Mass Spectrometer
Mass spectrometry is an analytical tool that is beneficial for the measurement of the mass-to-charge ratio of one or more molecules or fragments of molecules in a sample.
Usually, mass spectrometers are used for identifying known compounds whose molecular weights are known, however, they are also invaluable in identifying unknown compounds using molecular weight and cracking pattern determination. .
Mass spectrometers can do this as they consist of three components; an ionization source, a mass analyzer, and an ion detection system.

Plasma treatment of medical-grade polymers is a technique which is used to enhance their wettability as they are often challenging to print on and bond to because they have extremely low surface energy. Specialized plasma sampling mass spectrometers and Langmuir probes manufactured by Hiden assist the manufacture of plasma-modified medical-grade polymers by offering comprehensive plasma characterization.
What are Medical Grade Polymers?
Polymers are a critical component in modern medicine and are used in a range of applications for biomedical devices and drug delivery systems. Their use is due to their ease of manufacture, low cost, chemical stability and good mechanical properties. They must comply with global manufacturing regulations and their consistent properties allow for reliable performance.
