I always us he highest purity materials I can find to avoid reactive chemistry because an ion implanter is just a magnetic sector mass spectrometer on steroids and the reason for that is to avoid ppm contamination. The extraordinarily reactive free B* clusters react with _everything_ in the...
Plasma is the fourth state of matter after solid, liquid, and gas. I've been designing ion sources for over thirty years, and plasma really is physics-based alchemy at its finest, hence my public internet handle is a horrible pun: ionsourcerer reflecting science and alchemy in one term.
I'm...
The reason why I need PBN is because the boron cluster vapor EATS high purity _pressed BN_, and everything else for that matter.

Thank you for your suggestion. What I was looking for is a more detailed exposition/recipe of:

I've been researching boron for over thirty years, and the more I learn- the more utterly strange it is.
Boron is completely unlike any other...
I need to coat and/or fabricate experimental parts with PBN (and PG), and need to build a simple
in-house reactor for doing so. Have 32 years experience developing vacuum equipment for ion implantation and plasma processing, so this is well within my technical skill-set, but I lack basic...
