For sputtering non conductive materials, like the glow powder, you need RF sputtering. If you try to DC sputter an insulating target charge will build up on it, and will discharge with the arcs you see at 23:08

@spvillano 2 года назад

The magnetron outputs microwaves, which are most assuredly RF. Although, I'd not have gone with resistance heating of the metal, but went with inductive heating. Far more efficient and easily adjusted for output to ensure one doesn't vaporize the metal instantly. That's how getters were activated in vacuum tubes, which scavenge the remaining metal that's slowly departing the metals and insulators.

@kubeek 2 года назад

5:45 as functional isolation that nothing important gets zapped, great choice. But don´t rely on that for any kind of safety, just ground the table to the earth as part of the setup wiring. Ideally add a "dummy" wall plug that connects the ground and energises a relay wich prevents the device or power supply from working when not plugged in, somewhat ensuring a good earthing of the contraption. This is because if the metal construction is not connected to anything it can quite easily gain a static charge over time through tracking or by capactiance and give you a nasty zap.

@bureauofstrife9894 2 года назад

You can't route the entire machine through a residual current device (RCD) as the diffusion pump needs to cool under vacuum, so the roughing pump would always need to be on another circuit to prevent vacuum oil fires.

@runed0s86 2 года назад

My highschool had a crt on a cart. The ground wire pin was broken by someone. The cart gained a very fun static charge for anyone who touched it. Eventually someone went to the ER, and they got rid of the tv. They never replaced it and the teacher had to bring in their own projector

@sgpro819 2 года назад

How is this capacitance possible? I believe it could happen but don't understand how the electricity would build up on the surface of a nonconductive material. Wouldn't the charge just be pushed back into the metals and conductive material on the table with it? Wouldn't there have to be a neutral of some sort in the system for the electricity to flow through you?

@sgpro819 2 года назад

Oh. That makes a lot more sense. Thanks

@spvillano 2 года назад

If one has a lab that uses high voltage circuits, a bus grounding system would be strongly recommended, the bus going straight to a ground spike that's properly installed. Long ago, an electronics school instructor said to our class, "ground is ground the world around". I educated him on telluric currents and ground voltage differentials, each related to different causes. Got bit twice by such surprise differentials, since I've used greater caution, lest I strike out.

@boelwerkr 2 года назад

My tips for machining soft metals (copper, tin, lead, etc.) Use sharp HSS tools. Rasor sharp is blunt after i sharpened them. :-) The cutting angles can be quite steep. The tools are more like wood cutting tools. You want to move the removed material away from the stock as fast as possible. Use diesel, kerosene or WD-40 as cutting lubricant. The softer the material the thinner the lubricant has to be.

@microwave221 2 года назад

Came here just to second on High Speed Steel tooling instead of carbide, it should work way better and be waaaaaay cheaper for the things and quantities being machined on the type of machines present. You can get random "blanks" of HSS to sharpen into whatever you want, or even get used junk off of Canadian Craigslist since you are just gonna grind it into whatever you want. I don't have any experience with oxygen free copper, but my general understanding is that whenever you have to work with "grabby" or gummy materials, brassed-off tools with neutral cutting angles stop the material from pulling your cutter into itself like a melodramatic thespian.

@danielcarollo6952 2 года назад

I second the remark on the cutting angles, although not the "quite steep". The optimal angle depends on the material, and you have to dial your cutting speed so the material removal happens at a set rate. I recall having to look it up in tables when I first learnt to use machining tools (lathe and milling machine). And I agree on using HSS rather than carbide on copper, but also on Teflon. The issue with Teflon is that it flows away from the tool if you take too shallow a cut, but then it'll "bounce back" and the tool will take a bigger chunk, resulting in a rougher finish than anticipated.

@frankb508 2 года назад

@haitchteeceeeightnineeight5571 2 года назад

EDIT: I'd absolutely love to see an engineering cut of this video. Your work is amazing. I know this is too late to be useful, but the sheer majesty of what you built compels me to say that machining copper and some of its alloys is a right bastard, but it is possible to get oxygen-free Alloy 145. Alloy 145 is a tellurium-copper alloy which is ideal for machining. It apparently sees lots of use as a busbar material due to conductivity. Although described as a free machining copper alloy, free machining is, it's still a copper alloy and I found it amazingly abrasive against carbide and HSS tooling, and while less so than pure copper it's still pretty gummy. But it is nicer to machine, and unless the tellurium was somehow an issue I think it'd be great for this application. You've done some beautiful work here. Far out.

So, this is basically a plasma coater (common name). The disks for some reason are often called targets - although that makes no sense to me since they are sources. The coatings are typically very thin (in the nm scale). We use them to make conductive surfaces on samples for machines like scanning electron microscope (and others). These machines (generally) require conductive samples. I'm not allowed to "play" at work, but you might try to see if you can get interference colors on a glass slide (e.g. blue or red gold). You can use it as a thickness gauge based on coating time. Also, I always want to use masks and coat successive layers of metals with different conductivity to see if I could make an odd circuit - we can actually do carbon as well. Not sure they make a target for that, it is an evaporation technique usually. Anyway - good job. We pay a rather large sum for our coaters. I think our last carbon coater was 50K and it looks very similar to what you made .

@Teth47 2 года назад

They're called targets because the working fluid is the plasma in the chamber. The plasma bombards the target and knocks material loose, resulting in a beam of nano-scale shrapnel. Basically it's a particle accelerator that shreds itself in a controlled manner to coat things.

@popenieafantome9527 2 года назад

I do remember scanning electron microscopes needing to coat things in metal to “see” sample. Didn’t realize it was with a machine similar to this. Just remember seeing it on a video about butterfly wings having nano scales rather than pigments. They used an the scanning electron microscope to see the scales and briefly mentioned coating wing with gold. Was probably a “getting smarter every day” video.

@@durnsidh6483 Not true. In the UK, they measure distance in miles, height in feet, beer and some other drinks in pints, icecream in half gallons, and if you ask anyone how much they weigh in kilograms they will look at you funny but if you ask their weight in stones (14 pounds) or pounds, they most certainly will know. They also know inches just as easily as they do metric as it was only 20 some years ago that they were on the IPS system. Its actually illegal in the UK to sell beer or cider in any unit other than fractional pints. All UK plumbing is still in the inch system, though threads are BS but are still inch. I am an engineer in the US for a company based in the UK. As much as my colleagues in the UK try to deny it......they use the IPS system every single day in everything they do. ;-)

Welcome to the machining! You and Ben have heaps of talent there. Impressive. P.S. If anyone tells you - something you struggle with is easy, 'just do this, simple and failproof' - that person's a pretentious rookie. Metalwork is just unpredictable a lot of the time. You did more materials in 2 weeks, than me in 3 years as a miller(usually harder than turning on CNC). So not gonna splash an advice, it's already here. Takes persistance, ingenuity, logic, imagination and experience from accidents. For people outside machining and physics, you really are magicians. As i just left my job, wish i could join projects like this, while earning a living.

some sagely advice learned through drag racing, if you need more efficiency in your cooling of the baffle, try salt water. If you don't want to run salt water (corrosion mostly) run propylene glycol. I use it in my main loop for my intercooler with a brine salt bath. It's getting changed for the air conditioning core/pump from a suburban I think later so I can simplify the whole process, but with either of those you can get sub freezing temperatures in your cooling.

For sputtering strontium aluminate and other bulk metal oxides, you might try pressing the powder into a disk with a die set like what NileRed used to make his YBCO disks. Might also be beneficial to sinter the disks after pressing, but I'm not sure how that would affect the oxidation state of the dopant.

@kayakMike1000 10 месяцев назад

Ion beam assisted deposition is the key to make high quality oxide coatings. First, there's a base layer like stainless. This is electropollished smooth, then a compatible oxide layer is beamed in. This allows the YBCO crystal structure to grow the right way.

+10 for an engineering cut! Definitely!!! (I’m thinking about making a sputtering system, so the more detail the better!)

That is simply amazing.

I'd like to build one like that. Really would be super helpful for my work / hobby in the future.

I feel like I could do some amazing things with this and any kind of mecha figure.

Love seeing McMaster Carr - I live 10 minutes from the warehouse and they let you just call in orders and pick things up, a dangerous game haha

I am an isotope ratio mass spectrometer technician and i am absolutely blown away. Stunning achievement. Oil vapour is my enemy- have you looked into turbo molecular pumps? Ceramic spacers and washers are also easy to get these days. I just watched your previous video also, i have a set of digital mass flow controllers gathering dust, i am sorry to say 😅
