This instrument is used for fine coating of non-conductive samples for electron microscopy, with possible metallic (Au, Pt, Au/Pt) or carbon coatings for EDX analysis. Coating thickness can be adjusted with the current and sputtering time. Currently fitted with Au-Pt target.

This device is complementary equipment to the scanning electron microscope and provides necessary preparation of non-metallic non-conductive specimens for analysis on the SEM.
