Cathodic Arc Plasma Source (XHS‑CAIS)

Solid metal propellant, high ionization and high-flux metal beams for coatings and surface engineering.

Cathodic Arc Source XHS‑CAIS

High-flux metal ion beams with interchangeable targets

Evaporates and ionizes metal cathodes to produce high-flux metal ion beams for thin films, surface modification, and research platforms. Compact design, replaceable targets, cooling options, and tunable process parameters.

Key Features

  • Multiple metal targets (Cu/Ti/Al etc.)
  • High-flux metal ion beam for deposition/surface work
  • Modular target swap and cooling for long runs
  • Pairs with Faraday/RPA/LP for beam diagnostics
