 The Harrick PDC-32G is a compact table top plasma cleaner for nanoscale surface cleaning and activation of small samples. The attached PlasmaFlo gas mixer allows for quantitative control of up to two different process gasses and monitoring of the vacuumed pressure within the chamber.
+This tool is plumbed for nitrogen plasma only, which still works very well for PDMS-glass bonding and PDMS-PDMS bonding. If you require oxygen plasma, please consider using the [[https://www.cnsi.ucsb.edu/facilities/equipment/yes-r3-plasma-cleaning-system | plasma chamber in the Nanostructures Cleanroom Facility]] instead.
