In addition, the frequency noise e.g. due to the ion bombardment in sputtering processes is significantly reduced because the crystal is insensitive to this stress. These are tangible advantages in the measurement technology of nanometer layer thicknesses, as they occur for example in processes in precision optics, OLED or high-end electronic components.<\/p>\nRC\u2122 crystals can be used instead of the conventional AT-Cut crystals in typical quartz measuring heads<\/a> while retaining the existing measuring equipment<\/a>.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”3.22.3″ background_color=”#f7f7f7″ custom_padding=”0|0px|54px|0px|false|false”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.25″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_tabs _builder_version=”4.8.1″ tab_text_color=”#fe871f” body_font=”||||||||” tab_font=”||||||||” tab_font_size=”16px” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_tab title=”Specifications” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ tab_font=”||||||||” tab_line_height=”1.7em” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\t<\/td>Standard AT cut<\/td>Premium AT cut<\/td>RC\u2122 Quartz<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\tInsensitive to temperatures\nabove 200 \u00b0 C<\/td>no<\/td>no<\/td>yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\tCrystal cut<\/td>AT Cut +\/-2\u2019<\/td>AT Cut +\/-0,5\u2019<\/td>RC Cut +\/-1\u2019<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\tElectrode material<\/td>Gold, Silver or Aluminum (\u201ealloy\u201c)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\tFrequency<\/td>6 MHz \/ 5 MHz<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\tDiameter<\/td>14.0 mm \/ 12.5 mm \/ 8.6 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\tCrystal shape<\/td>Plano-convex<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n<\/div>\n[\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Models and variants” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\t<\/th>Contact material<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n\n\n\tDual anchor quartzes shown<\/td><\/noscript><\/td><\/noscript><\/td><\/noscript><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t<\/td>Gold<\/td>Silver<\/td>Aluminum<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t14 mm AT Standard, 6 Mhz<\/td>CNT-06IG<\/td>CNT-06IS<\/td>CNT-06IA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t14 mm RC, 6 Mhz<\/td>CNT-06RCIG<\/td>CNT-06RCIS<\/td>CNT-06RCIA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t14 mm AT Standard, 5 Mhz, Single anchor<\/td>CNT-05BG<\/td>CNT-05BS<\/td>CNT-05BA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t14 mm RC, 5 Mhz, Single anchor<\/td>CNT-05RCBG<\/td>CNT-05RCBS<\/td>CNT-05RCBA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t12,5 mm AT Standard, 6 Mhz<\/td>CNT-06ISG<\/td><\/td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t12,5 mm RC, 6 Mhz<\/td>CNT-06RCSG<\/td><\/td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t8,6 mm RC, 6 Mhz<\/td>CNT-86RCCG<\/td><\/td>CNT-86RCCA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t12,5 mm RC, 6 Mhz<\/td>CNT-06RCSG<\/td>CNT-06RCSS<\/td>CNT-06RCSA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t14 mm AT Standard, 6 Mhz, \noptimized for QSK-sensor head<\/td>CNT-06IQG<\/td>CNT-06IQS<\/td>CNT-06IQA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\t14 mm RC, 6 Mhz, \noptimized for QSK-sensor head<\/td>CNT-06RCIQG<\/td><\/td>CNT-06RCIQA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n<\/div>\n[\/et_pb_tab][\/et_pb_tabs][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Measuring quartzesHome \u00bb Consumables\u00bb Quartz CrystalsBeamTec stocks replacement quartz crystals for most commercially available film thickness monitors.

COLNATEC LLC is a US american manufacturer that is specialized in quartz crystals and the measuring technology for vacuum thin film processes. The technical director of COLNATEC, Scott Grimshaw, who developed the alloy quartzes at Inficon, led the development of the quartz technology to the next generation.<\/p>\n

The patented design of the RC \u2122 Quartz is insensitive to frequency shifts due to thermal radiation and film stress. This was achieved by changing the layer structure of the raw quartz using advanced manufacturing conditions.<\/p>\n
In ultra-thin layers in the 10-100 Angstrom range, the combination of frequency shifts resulting from heat and stress in layer growth can result in a layer thickness deviation of more than 100%. This results in an uncontrollable deposition process. The newly developed RC\u2122 Quartz almost completely attenuates these effects.<\/p>\n
The RC\u2122 crystal does not generate any rate fluctuations when opening and closing the evaporator shutter. This has also been proven impressively in tests in our house in comparison with a conventional AT-cut quartz. <\/p>\n
