ESP Improvements

Design a heater with a more balanced trace element profile that has leads on the perimeter.

Redesign the insulator and keeper plate to accommodate new lead location.

Heater Improvement on Axcelis Gemini Photostabilizer Thermochuck

Eliminate spring washers, replace with locking washers to prevent screw backing out during thermal cycling.

Upsize screw thread size to allow for higher torque.

Higher torque applies more pressure on the keeper plate and therefore the insulator and heater element to prevent heater element burnup.
