Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This study provides full details and advice on the understanding and practical operation of the vacuum systems found in electron microscope laboratories. The importance of the correct functioning of these systems is too frequently underestimated, with the result that electron microscopes and other vacuum equipment, such as freeze-etching units and sputter coaters, give less than their optimum performance.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 463-464) and index.
Vacuum and its characteristics -- The evacuation process -- Vacuum gauges -- Rough vacuum pumps -- Oil diffusion pumps -- Turbomolecular and molecular drag pumps -- Ion, sublimation, and bulk getter pumps -- Cryogenic pumps -- Practical vacuum systems -- Vacuum leaks, seals and greases.
