The Minilock ALD system has been designed to provide researchers with the capability to grow Atomic Layer Deposition films through both thermal, and plasma-enhanced modes for substrate sizes up to 300mm. The small footprint and robust design make it ideal for research, and pilot line environments. A biased electrode is standard, which can be used to change the film properties.
By keeping our core components the same, it is very easy to scale to a production cluster platform.
Standard processes have been developed for various materials. This is backed by over 25 years’ experience in rapid process development.
System Features:
PLC and touch screen control
Inductively coupled plasma source (ICP)
Biased electrode
Close coupled precursor delivery (max 8)
50°C to 400°C chuck
4 Precursor entry points
400l/s Maglev turbo
Vacuum loadlock
Options:
Microwave source (Compared with ICP, a remote microwave plasma produces a lower content of energetic ions, and the flow of radicals generated can produce much lower damage to the substrate.)
PECVD processes
Cluster tool compatible
600°C Stainless steel electrode
