Department of functional elements of control systems
Acting head of department – PhD. Petro I. Zabolotny
Purpose:
- study of working processes in various plasma devices;
- tryout of ion-plasma treatment processes;
- deposition of decorative and functional, single-layer, multilayer, and nanostructured coatings of various compositions and purposes onto outer and inner working surfaces.
Equipment:
- high-capacity high-vacuum evacuation unit;
- vacuum chambers:
Vacuum chamber ” Big Puma” and “Small Puma” in experimental vacuum-plasma complex
- 1m³(Big Puma)- horizontal, water-cooled;
- 0.07 m³(Small Puma)- vertical, water-cooled;
- 0.045 m³ and 0.025 m³ – vertical, uncooled;
- vacuum-arc plasma process devices and closed electron drift devices (energetic gas ion generators and magnetron sputterers);
- plasma device power sources;
- vacuum feed-throughs to provide the rotational and reciprocal movement of the plasma devices and workpieces;
- power supply, cooling water, and working gas vacuum feed-throughs;
- instrumentation.
