Vacuum oven
General purpose oven
The vacuum oven is used to dry and anneal material under vacuum.
A special application is to make a nonreactive surface aid of the PDMS SCIL stamp from the master. To do so, the surface is modified with a reactive organo-silane containing a fluorinated tail using the vapor phase deposition method. In this process the master is placed in the vacuum oven at 40 °C. Next a few drops of … are placed in the oven and the system is continuously pumped tp ~10-2 mbar for at least 16 hours.
