Re: Cr sticking on glass
I might add that if the chrome has been around awhile it may be necessary to hit it first with the HF to remove the native oxide that has formed. Don

Re: Cr sticking on glass
I would also like to know how to get rid of the Chromium layer. It sticks to regular pitch and rouge like ... pitch. I don't have any problem getting aluminum to stick to glass.? ? Guy Brandenburg,

Re: Cr sticking on glass
Valdimir! How can you strip off the Chrome from the glass? In my experience, it comes off by polishing with pich or by grinding. I have not find any soultion which solves the Cr underlayer. Br. Attila

Re: Cr sticking on glass
I have been messing up coatings a lot this week ( dialing in a new transformer ) so have been stripping them back off and analyzing the results. First off, I have noted that the coatings are massively

Re: Cr sticking on glass
For Al and Ag I deposit 300 A Cr underlayer on glass at 20 A/s . Before I make oxygen ion beam substrates pre-cleaning during 2-3 min. Everything looks fine, adhesion is very good. Vladimir Chutko

Re: Cr sticking on glass
I'm not sure about the best rate of deposition of Chrome by evaporation (have never done it) But chrome deposited by magnetron sputtering at a rate of about 30 nM a minute will bond with Soda lime

Cr sticking on glass
I need to do Cr coating which must adhere very well. But my evaporation rate may not be as high as I would like. Cr is always mentioned as holding on to glass well - better than most other metals.

Very low sticking coefficient of copper on glass?
Hi all! Have recently made my fist aluminum first surface coated mirror which came out perfect but the sticking isnt perfect but quite all right and getting better but i havent really cleaned it in

Re: Why you don't burn tungsten dry
You could burn them dry if you keep the temperature on them under the tungsten boiling point at the desired vacuum, i always do like this and have never accidentally deposit tungsten if they happen to

Re: Why you don't burn tungsten dry
Nice tip. I'm even more interested in how you made the mirror blank and from what found materials. ?3.5 eh? Building a camera? I've long had a desire to own a big "light bucket" telescope, but can't

Why you don't burn tungsten dry
Hi all, For your consideration I submit my reasons you don't want to burn tungsten elements dry. I was trying out a new 1000 amp transformer in my vacuum chamber electrical power supply setup and it

Oh boy, not from memory. And I'm sure it differs between belt drive and direct-drive due to the difference in RPMs. I could swear there was something about it in my Cenco manual... but I looked just

Re: Vacuum Pump Specifications
Your pump is probably back-streaming but this is where my own knowledge runs out - surely they take that into account when stating ultimate pressures?
