The Perkin Elmer 11 067 Ion Gun Control is a sputter ion gun control unit from the Physical Electronics Division of Perkin-Elmer. The Perkin Elmer 11 067 Ion Gun Control provides a beam voltage adjustable from zero to +5000 volts DC. The Perkin Elmer 11 067 Ion Gun Control has a pressure range of 0-50 mP.[1]

How it works

The 11 067 control uses a feedback loop where the emission current from the filament is measured and used to regulate the filament current supply, keeping the emission constant. The two-axis deflection system generates push-pull triangular output voltage waveforms for both X and Y axes, with amplitudes adjustable between 0 and +200 volts AC peak-to-peak and a DC level of 110 volts. A special electrically isolated aperture plate in the ion gun collects a fraction of the electrons produced in the ionization region; this current is a function of pressure and is read as a pressure signal on the panel meter.[1]

The control includes a three-position toggle switch for beam voltage (ON, OFF, or REMOTE via TTL signal). A five-turn digital readout control sets the beam voltage, and another five-turn control sets the focus voltage ratio. Raster amplitude is controlled by single-turn potentiometers for each axis, with a master toggle to enable or disable the deflection system. The emission current or pressure can be selected for display on the panel meter via a two-position switch.[1]
