Cyberstar Laser Heater Pedestal, offered by ECM Greentech, is a high temperature crystal growth furnace utilizing a high energy laser beam focused on a localized area of the rod sample, and can reach temperatures up to 3000°C. The furnace operates based on the float zone technique using one rod of the grown material, or operated using a seed and feeding rod to provide the melted drop. Both of these solutions are possible thanks to the independent vertical conversion between the upper and lower holders in the furnace. The rod movement is perfectly synchronized using the Cyberstar control software, which is included with the furnace. It can be used to obtain crystal rods or fibers depending on the independent speed translation programming of the upper and the lower holders. This specific design of the furnace makes it ideal for laboratory use, universities, and R&D centers.
