Kaspar Schott, “Technica Curiosa” (1664), Otto von Guericke: Experiment in Regensburg and Magdeburg

Vacuum technology is needed in many different fields:

• All experiments with accelerators and particles

• Atomic physics with traps and spectrometers

• VUV spectroscopy

• Electron microscopy

• Plasma physics

• Low temperature experiments (insulation)

• Material research

• Space simulation

• Industrial processes as thin film production, glass coating

• Chemical industry

• Food processing

Very useful and comprehensive compendium andcollection offormulas (CD)

Vacuum Regimes(16 powers of ten!)

Rough Vacuum (RV) 1000 ..... 1 mbar

Medium Vacuum (MV) 1 ..... 10-3 mbar

High Vacuum (HV) 10-3 ..... 10-7 mbar

Ultrahigh Vacuum (UHV) 10-6 ..... 10-14 mbar

These regimes can be delineated from gas kinetics and the nature of

gas flow.

SI-unit: 1 pascal (Pa) ≡ 1 N·m−2 ≡ 1 J·m−3 ≡ 1 kg·m−1·s−2 ≡ 10-5 bar

usual : 1 mbar ≡ 1 hPa

How to clean vacuum systems:

• degreasing by acetone or freon or tri to get rid of all oil, lubricant and grease rests

• or degreasing in a cooking pot with dishwasher detergent and boiling water for 2 hours

• alcohol doesn’t help much, but one can get rid of water• the last two procedures super-pure water and drying with

clean hot air• heating or baking to overcome the outgassing• use clean white cotton gloves for all procedures
