LEED 800 (Model BDL800IR)

Full Flange Size LEED for Higher Angular and Energy Resolution

Description

The LEED 800 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 LEED 800 delivers exceptionally sharp and bright LEED patterns with high resolution in k-space (typical transfer width of 300 Å at 100 eV). The wide viewing angle (100° at 75mm sample distance) and minimal shadowing of the screen by the miniature electron gun give a maximum visible LEED pattern.


Features

  • High energy & image resolution for LEED and AES with no Moire pattern interference
  • Large angle (100°) fluorescent LEED display and superior magnetic shielding
  • Miniature electron gun with large coherence width and dual lenses
  • 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

Applications

The LEED 800 is capable of providing LEED and AES data for a wide range of samples. The larger size allows for higher angular and energy resolution.

LEED 800 (Model BDL800IR) calculation formula for Flange-Sample distance and Retraction length:
FS = 173mm + 2 LMX – OV; where FS is the flange to sample distance, LMX is the retraction length and OV is the overlapping length.

Configuration Guide

The LEED 800 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-8) and LaB6 filament (Model LaB6) are further options.
