Evaporation boats can be reused, but it depends on several factors. The boat's condition, cleanliness, and compatibility with different evaporant materials play a significant role in determining whether it can be reused. If the evaporation boat is in good condition, free from cracks or defects, and has been cleaned thoroughly, it can typically be reused for subsequent depositions. However, if the boat has been exposed to reactive materials or shows signs of degradation, it may not be suitable for reuse. Consider the potential for contamination or unwanted reactions when reusing evaporation boats. Regular inspection and proper cleaning procedures are essential to maintain the boat's performance and ensure its suitability for reuse.

How should evaporating crucibles be handled and maintained?

Evaporating crucibles should be handled and maintained with care to ensure their longevity and performance. Crucibles should be cleaned thoroughly before each use to remove any residual material from previous depositions. Avoid using abrasive materials that could damage the crucible's surface. During loading and unloading, handle crucibles with clean gloves or specialized tools to prevent contamination.
