Hydrogen Cracker
Hydrogen Cracker

Atomic hydrogen from a compact e-beam evaporator body

The Hydrogen Cracker produces atomic hydrogen by passing H₂ through a replaceable tungsten capillary heated by electron bombardment. It is built on the Ebeam Evaporator Source and mounts on a single 2.75″ (DN40CF) flange, so it fits most UHV chambers.

  • Replaceable tungsten capillary
  • Leak valve and gas line included
  • Integral shutter
  • Water cooled
  • All feedthroughs included
  • Flange-to-tip distance from 9″ to 15″ (230–380 mm), specified at order

An upgrade kit converts an existing MTS e-beam evaporator to a hydrogen source.

Options

Complete source: Hydrogen cracker with integral shutter, all feedthroughs, replaceable tungsten capillary, leak valve, and water cooling.

Upgrade kit: Adds hydrogen cracking to an existing MTS e-beam evaporator. Includes leak valve, tungsten capillary, holder, and gas line.

Electronics: Runs from the Ebeam Electronics control unit.

Custom configurations: Other flange-to-tip distances and mounting flanges.
