4.9. Carbon rod coating
Two 3 mm carbon rods, one with a sharpened end, are pushed against each other
and a current is applied. Fine-grained carbon is evaporated. Compared to carbon
thread evaporation thicker layers can be achieved and in less time. Because of
the continuous evaporation a continuous rotation can be performed during the
process.
Carbon rod evaporation should always be performed with quartz
measurement to enable a reproducible result.
