Abstract
A multiple crystal head has aluminum rotary carousel within an aluminum body, and number of crystals disposed about the axis of the carousel. A water line coil is clamped to the aluminum body by a stainless steel clamp plate, and a beryllium copper finger spring provides thermal contact between the carousel and the body so that any heat from the deposition process is quickly removed by the water coil. A space is maintained between the front of the carousel and the proximal side of the body front face so that there is no scraping when the carousel rotates. A removable stainless steel heat shield over the body provides good thermal isolation and prevents deposits from reaching the aluminum body or other parts behind the shield. A pneumatic bellows and a pawl and ratchet assembly rotate the carousel to bring the various crystals into the active, monitoring position.
