In situ femtosecond laser processing system for high-temperature molecular beam epitaxy under ultrahigh vacuum
Femtosecond laser processing (FLP) enables high-precision, non-contact material modification and is promising for in situ control during thin-film growth. However, integrating FLP into molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) systems is challenging due to ultrahigh vacuum, elevated temperatures, and limited chamber space. This work reports the development of an FLP system compatible with MBE environments. The optical layout, mechanical structure, and thermal design were optimized to address spatial and thermal constraints. A structural thermal optical performance simulation was performed using COMSOL to verify stable operation under coupled multiphysics conditions. The system was experimentally validated to operate stably at 750 °C and Pa, achieving a processing accuracy with an average error of 0.214 %, providing an effective approach to the in situ control of grown film materials.
期刊介绍:
Vacuum is an international rapid publications journal with a focus on short communication. All papers are peer-reviewed, with the review process for short communication geared towards very fast turnaround times. The journal also published full research papers, thematic issues and selected papers from leading conferences.
A report in Vacuum should represent a major advance in an area that involves a controlled environment at pressures of one atmosphere or below.
The scope of the journal includes:
1. Vacuum; original developments in vacuum pumping and instrumentation, vacuum measurement, vacuum gas dynamics, gas-surface interactions, surface treatment for UHV applications and low outgassing, vacuum melting, sintering, and vacuum metrology. Technology and solutions for large-scale facilities (e.g., particle accelerators and fusion devices). New instrumentation ( e.g., detectors and electron microscopes).
2. Plasma science; advances in PVD, CVD, plasma-assisted CVD, ion sources, deposition processes and analysis.
3. Surface science; surface engineering, surface chemistry, surface analysis, crystal growth, ion-surface interactions and etching, nanometer-scale processing, surface modification.
4. Materials science; novel functional or structural materials. Metals, ceramics, and polymers. Experiments, simulations, and modelling for understanding structure-property relationships. Thin films and coatings. Nanostructures and ion implantation.
