Turning Brilliant Ideas into Affordable Tools
The mission of ibss Group is to not only provide the fastest, safest, and most efficient plasma cleaner on the market, but also to develop and maintain long term relationships with customers and operators of the GV10x by providing quick response times and thorough explanations and support that exceed expectations.
Vince Carlino founded ibss Group, Inc. in 2002 in order to continue developing field-free ion beam (IBS) deposition systems for EM specimen preparation. The IBS system and the Dimpler™, developed by VCR Group, set the standard for specimen deposition and preparation.
In 2003, ibss Group agreed to market a tool to minimize hydrocarbon contamination in SEMs by remote or downstream (DS) oxidation. Mr. Carlino assumed Global Sales responsibility to introduce an innovative plasma process for the removal of gas phase hydrocarbon contamination in electron beam instruments.
In 2007, ibss Group began cooperating with an inventor of a unique, patented plasma source. ibss Group developed and produced the GV10x, a new paradigm in situ downstream plasma asher. Competitively priced, the GV10x Downstream Asher reduces carbon & hydrocarbon contamination 10 to 20 times more effectively than traditional methods at vacuum pressure safe for TMP operation.
Today, ibss Group has expanded its GV10x models and has customers in EM and synchrotron labs around the world successfully using the GV10x and related products. To ensure quality and safety for users, ibss products are CE, KC, CB and RoHS compliant. Further, the GV10x has been approved for use at its full range of power (10 to 99 watts) in Japan, where the Radio Law would normally limit its upper limit to 49 watts.
ibss Group has not stopped with these accomplishments but is continuing its research and development to bring new options and innovation to the market.
It is the mission of ibss Group to not only provide the fastest, safest, and most efficient plasma cleaner on the market, but also to develop and maintain long term relationships with customers and operators of the GV10x by providing quickresponse times and thorough explanations and support that exceed expectations.
Makes a Huge Difference
We bought a GV10x in MCA configuration about a year ago. I use the stand-alone chamber to clean samples and TEM holders. I also have two flanges (spoolers), one for each SEM, to clean my two SEM chambers once a month. I successfully used it last week on their old JEOL SEM. It made a huge difference.
