Processing steps
Step Chronology Date Type Process Changes
#1 before layer formation 2024-10-10 fluid physical three freeze-thaw cycles with liquid nitrogen to purify the water
#2 before layer formation 2024-10-10 fluid physical sublimation of solid H2O at a few tens of °C under vacuum from solid to gas phase
#3 during layer formation 2024-10-10 layer formation flux of H2O gas was deposited at 150 K under vacuum from gas to solid crystalline ice phase (Ih and/or Ic)
