A plasma system for plasma cleaning, plasma ashing, plasma etching, surface cleaning, plasma surface preparation or plasma modification. Our capacitively-coupled plasma systems are used for surface modification, cleaning prior to: wire bonding, die attach, encapsulation, conformal coating, printing, optical plasma cleaning, optical microscopy, plasma modification of polymers and plasma sterilization. Plasma processing increases wettability, improves lubricity, enhances bonding and adhesion strength, promotes underfill adhesion and enables deposition of bio-compatible materials. The system is suitable for R&D centers, universities and laboratory facilities who will find the AutoGlow™ plasma system the perfect fit for their plasma needs. The AutoGlow™ can be used to remove organics from electron microscopy (EM) specimens and specimen holders, as well as many applications involving plasma chemistry.  

The Auto Glow™ system is a tabletop plasma chemistry reactor designed to provide the medical, scientific, educational and microelectronics community with plasma technology at a moderate cost. The system is suitable for R&D centers, universities, and laboratory facilities, who will find the AutoGlow plasma system the perfect fit for their plasma needs.

New and updated design:

Small plasma systems for use in labs and other electronics manufacturing were first introduced in the mid 1970’s and have been used with little design change since that time. Glow Research™, has taken the best designs of the old systems, and updated the  AutoGlow™  with current technology, including our proprietary phase magnitude detector and SimpleMatch RF network that allows efficient plasma tuning—provides quick processing without the trouble of constantly adjusting to various sample loads.   

The AutoGlow™ has solid state electronics, updated gas delivery options and technology that is expected by both users and safety personnel throughout the world. The chamber size is 147mm (5.8 in.) in diameter by 177 mm deep (7 in.) and is made of high purity quartz. The system and chamber are designed to increase uniformity and repeatability when compared to other table-top plasma systems.

The AutoGlow™ System comes with a variable 10 to 300 watt, 13.56 MHz solid state generator making the Auto Glow System the most efficient system of its kind on the market. Designed for low power (10 Watts) or high power (up to 300 Watts). The AutoGlow™ System is designed to efficiently breakdown gases introduced to the system creating reactive species that will quickly clean or modify the sample. The AutoGlow is designed to operate from 10 to 300 Watts.

Contact Glow Research™ for information about any type of plasma reactor—small batch, large batch, R&D single substrate and production plasma systems.  Glow Research™, LLC. also provides rebuilt plasma systems, parts and services for a variety of plasma systems with repair capability down to the component level.

Glow Research™ has taken over the world-wide responsibility for parts and service for several older units from March Plasma Systems, Inc. (March Plasmod, March Super Plasmod, March PM-600 and March Jupiter RIE systems).
