Diffusion Pump from
Varian
http://www.varianinc.com/cgi-bin/nav?products/vacuum/pumps/diffusion/nhs35/index&cid=975JINROOOLMKGMJLMMRQGN
Mechanism
Transfer gas by momentum transfer on collision
with the vapor stream
Fluid heated to vapor
Vapors flow up chimney and out through a series of
nozzles
Supersonic stream downward
Gas is injected into high pressure region by vapor
stream
Vapor condenses at cooled outer wall and returns
to the boiler
Characteristics of
Diffusion Pump
Pump cannot sustain a pressure drop any
larger than this boiler pressure between its
inlet and outlet
The top jet has the largest speed and the lowest
pressure drop
•Constant Speed
•Constant Throughput
•Mechanical Pump
Dominant
•Compression ratio
Four Operation Regions
Constant Speed
•Normal operation range
•0.5 pumping efficiency for the pump alone
•10-1 ~10-9 Pa
•Q rises linearly with pressure below the critical inlet
pressure
Constant Throughput
•Maximum useable Q is at the critical inlet pressure
Four Operation Region
Mechanical Pump Dominant region
•Throughput increases in accordance with
the speed of the backing pump
Compression ratio
Low pumping speed due to finite compression
ratio
For well designed pump:
•Exceeding critical forepressure – by equipment malfunction
Why ??
Feasible

Boiler Heater Input Effect
Backstreaming
Fractions of pumping fluid from pump to chamber
Five Sources of steady state backstreaming
Evaporation of fluid condensed on the upper walls of
the pump
Premature boiling of the condensate before it enters
the boiler
Overdivergence of the oil vapor in the top jet
Leaks in the jet cap
Evaporation of fluid from the heated lip of the top jet
Gas Type in Backstreaming
DC-705 fluid
Reduction of
Beckstreaming
1.Turn off the power to the diffusion pump and continue to back
the diffusion pump with the appropriate mechanical pump.

Ion Pump
Characteristics of Ion
Pump
Reach ultra-high vacuum region without
concern for heavy organic contamination
Titanium on cathode is
sputtered and deposited on
the anode
Pumping Mechanism
Gas pumping mechanism will be based on one or
more of the following mechanism
Adsorption following molecular dissociation
Gettering by freshly sputtered cathode material
Surface burial under sputtered cathode material
Ion burial following ionization in the discharge
Fast neutral atom burial
Pumping Speed and
Pumping Mechanism
Organic gases, active gases, hydrogen, and inert gases
are pumped in distinctly different ways
In steady state, reemission rates equal pumping rates
Organic gases
Easily pumped by adsorption and precipitation
Active gases
•reaction with titanium on anode
Easily Pumped by
•Ion burial in the cathode
Pumping Speed and
Pumping Mechanism
Hydrogen
• Initially Pumped Ion burial and neutral adsorption
• Then diffusion into bulk titanium and forms a
hydride
• Pumping speed does not rate limit unless
indiffusion prevention made on cathode surface
Pumping Speed and
Pumping Mechanism
Inert Gases
Not pumped efficiently as active gases
Pumped by
•Ion burial in the cathodes
•Reflected neutral burial
in the anodes and
cathodes
•Argon only 1~2 % of the active gas speed

Notes for Ion Pumps
Lifetime of a diode pump is a function of the time
necessary to sputter through the cathodes (Typical
Values: 5000 h at 10-3)
Gases that can be evacuated H2, N2, O2, H2O, CO, CO2
Gases that can't be evacuated He, Ne, Ar, CH4, C2H6 and other organic gases
