Development of an in-situ exchangeable inert Shapal-M-based molecule evaporator — •Knud Lämmle, Alexander Schwarz, and Roland Wiesendanger — Institute of Applied Physics, University of Hamburg, Jungiusstr. 11, D-20355 Hamburg

We describe the development of an in-situ exchangeable evaporator and the required peripheral equipment for the preparation of organic molecules on clean substrates in an UHV environment. The evaporator is mounted on a transfer shuttle compatible with an existing Omicron chamber system. The crucible is made of Shapal-M, a machinable ceramic with a high thermal conductivity as well as a high mechanical stress resistivity and therefore much better suited than other non-metallic materials normally used like alumina, boron nitride or vitreous carbon. It is heated by a tungsten filament, which is wound directly around the Shapal-M cylinder. For precise temperature regulation, a thermocouple is integrated into the crucible. Moreover, the evaporation rate can be monitored by a quartz crystal microbalance. In order to manipulate the growth mode of the molecular thin films, the sample stage is equipped with a thermocouple controlled heating unit.
