Xenon Corporation Ushers In the Newest Generation of Photonic Curing With SINTERONTM 2000

XenonCorp. entered thefield of photonic curing and is introducing SINTERON 2000-its new system for sintering, orannealing, conductive nanoparticles on heat sensitive materials at low cost.Recognized in the marketplace as the leader in pulsed light curing, Xenon was anatural for developing this technology, and SINTERON 2000 is the proof that themarket was correct. SINTERON 2000 is able to sinter conductive inks in lessthan a millisecond on a variety of low cost, heat sensitive materials such aspaper, polyethylene films and PET. And it turns in this performance at asignificantly lower price tag than other photonic curing systems.

The SINTERON 2000 system isflexible, offering researchers the ability to adjust both the energy level andpulse durations delivered to the flashlamp. Its speed and low substrateheat-one flash in less than 1 millisecond at room temperatures with up to 2,000joules-achieves excellent conductivity while also offering an unprecedentedability to sinter copper nano inks as well as silver. Prior to photonictechnology, copper annealing had been a difficult challenge due to oxidation;now copper, which is lower in cost than silver, can be used effectively.

The SINTERON 2000 systemfeatures a high energy pulsed xenon lamp that provides a broadband spectrumfrom 240 nm to 1000 nm. In addition, the Sinteron 2000 provides a 19-inch rackunit that contains the power supply, controller and four pulse forming networks(PFN). By allowing easy connections for these PFN stages, different pulsedurations can be quickly configured.
