Characteristics:

  • UHV chamber with base pressure better than 5e-10 Torr
  • 2" diameter substrate handling (and smaller)
  • Substrate heating to 700C in oxygen environment
  • RF substrate biasing up to 100W
  • Ion/plasma source for substrate cleaning capable of both:
    • High kinetic energy, highly anisotropic ion beam for sputter etching
    • Low kinetic energy, chemically reactive, atom beam for nitridation/oxidation
