Product Description:
The SPECS TGC-H is a fully UHV compatible thermal gas cracker source using electron bombardment heating of a tungsten capillary to thermally dissociate the gas passing through it. The cracking efficiency is determined by the equilibrium thermodynamics of the dissociation of hydrogen molecules into atoms. For capillary temperatures of 1400° C or more and pressures below 10^-8 mbar this is nearly 100%. The small size and thermal mass of the capillary means that very little power is required with negligible heat load into the system. The filament itself is easy to replace. Moreover, no differential pumping is needed for operation in UHV and due to the electrically grounded capillary zero ion emission is achieved.
