EMS offers a variety of economically priced silver coated substrates. All coatings are deposited under vacuum using electron beam evaporation. These high quality substrates are coated with 500 Å (50 nm) of silver, with a thin titanium adhesion layer (2-7 nm) between the glass and silver coating. This adhesion layer can also be replaced with chromium upon request. For a silver coated microscope slide without adhesion layer, order Cat. No. 71892-30-XP. All substrates are pre-cleaned using an ion source for quality assurance. Glass slides are packed in a dedicated cleanroom environment and shipped in slide mailers. All coverslips are packed in a dedicated cleanroom environment and shipped in a X0 Gel-Pak™ box.
