LEED 600

Compact LEED to fit smaller UHV Systems

LEED

  • High energy & image resolution for LEED and AES with no Moire pattern interference
  • Large Angle (90°) Fluorescent LEED Display and superior magnetic shielding
  • Miniature electron gun with large coherence width double focusing
  • Suitable for In Situ Film Growth Monitoring
  • Low outgassing rate
  • Convenient LEED Image Capture with External CCD Camera
  • Simple and Powerful Operation with Digital Controller

The LEED 600 with integral shutter has LEED and AES capabilities using a miniature electron gun, set of concentric grids and a conductive, phosphor coated screen. It is an extremely reliable high-performance LEED instrument which operates with up to date digital power supply. The retraction mechanism has outstanding mechanical properties ensuring smooth day-to-day operation as experienced by our large user base over decades. The wide viewing angle (90° at 51 mm sample distance) and minimal shadowing of the screen by the miniature electron gun give a maximum visible LEED pattern.

More Information

Applications

The LEED 600 is capable of providing LEED and AES data for a wide range of samples.  The compact size allows for easy installation to smaller UHV systems.

Drawings

For seamless integration, 3D step files are available for all models. 

LMX length calculation for LEED 600 (model BDL600IR):

FS = 135.5 mm + 2LMX – OV + WD; where FS is the flange to sample distance, LMX is the retraction distance, OV is the overlapping distance, WD is the working distance and the 135.5 mm value is a constant related to this optic model.

If the calculated FS value is longer than the actual port length a nipple adapter can be added as a spacer between the LEED optics and the UHV chamber. The nipple length can be calculated as follows:

NL = FS – PL; where NL is nipple length and PL is port length. 

Configuration Guide and Specifications

The LEED 600 optics is controlled using either a LPS075-D or LPS300-D power supply. The LPS075-D is used to operate the optic in LEED mode only whereas the LPS300-D in conjunction with the LOA10-AES lock-in controller and AUS30 input coupler is used to operate the optics in LEED and AES modes. Integral shutter (model ISH-6) and LaB6 filament (model LaB6) are further options.
