ClearView™ VHW Series Self-Cleaning Optical Window

ClearView™ VHW Series Self-Cleaning Optical Window

    Applications
  • Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition(MOCVD)
  • Molecular Beam Epitaxy(MBE)
  • Chemical Beam Epitaxy(CBE)
  • Pyrometry
  • RHEED screen ports
  • DRS-1000 temperature measurement

The ClearView™ VHW Series windows are self-cleaning viewports for use in deposition environments. The windows consist of an in-vacuum heated quartz disk, thermally isolated behind a standard vacuum window. Material that would normally cloud or obscure the view through a vacuum window encounters the protective heated disk instead. The material will re-evaporate from the heated disk at a rate dependent upon its vapor pressure/temperature curve.

The ClearView VHW Series offers two sizes of viewport. The VHW-150 has a viewing diameter of 1.37" and the VHW-250 offers a 2.37" viewing diameter.
