System features
Small footprint - Easy to site
Optimised electrode cooling - Substrate temperature control
High-conductance radial (axially symmetric) pumping configuration - Guaranteed enhanced process uniformity and rates are
Addition of < 500ms data logging - Traceability and history of chamber and process conditions
Close-coupled turbo pump - High pumping speed and excellent base pressure
Clear ease of access to key components - Improved serviceability and maintenance
X20 control system - Greatly increases data retrieval and delivers faster, more repeatable matching
Fault and tool diagnostics via front end software - Rapid fault diagnosis
Laser end-point detection using interferometry - Measure etch depth in transparent materials on reflective surfaces (for example, oxides on Si), or reflectometry for non-transparent materials (such as metals) to determine layer boundaries
