Overview
The Cobra® ICP plasma source produces high-density reactive species at low pressure. Substrate DC bias is driven by a separate RF generator, allowing independent control of radicals and ions, according to process requirements.
Oxford Instruments’ PlasmaPro 100 process modules offer a 200mm platform with single wafer and multi-wafer batch capability. The process modules offer high throughput, high precision and excellent uniformity with clean smooth vertical profiles and etch surfaces. Our systems have a wide install base within high volume manufacturing (HVM), with well-developed process solutions.
Features
Delivers reactive species to the substrate, with a uniform high conductance path through the chamber - Allows a high gas flow to be used while maintaining low chamber pressure, which provides wide process windows for advanced application development
