The AMAT P5000 Etch is a magnetically enhanced reactive ion etching system (MERIE) with two functional process chambers (Chambers B & C). P5000 Chamber B is primarily used for etching silicon based dielectrics (silicon dioxide, silcon nitride, etc.) and some carbon based compounds (resist, poly imide, etc) while chamber C is mainly used for silicon etching with high selectivity to underlying dielectric such as silicon dioxide. The system can process only 4" wafers. Pieces have to be attached to a 4" wafer. Though the process chamber processes one wafer at a time, up to 25 wafers can be loaded per batch.

Applied Materials is committed to accelerating this new PPACt playbook for our customers and partners. We have the broadest and deepest portfolio of products for delivering PPACt innovations to the market. This portfolio encompasses the ability to create and deposit, shape and remove, modify, analyze, and connect materials and devices in new ways. We are unique in having a broad suite of process technology and metrology capabilities under one roof, and we have highly differentiated silicon and packaging lab capabilities. Our Integrated Materials Solutions co-optimize materials deposition, removal, modification, and analysis to create new materials and engineer new structures for high-performance, low-power chips at leading-edge nodes.

The Tegal 903e is an inline RIE/plasma production etcher configured for six-inch wafers. It is a single-wafer, cassette-to-cassette driven tool with easy-to-use menu control and a 13.56 MHz RF Generator. The input gases are controlled by MFC, with up to 4 MFCs in the system. This tool implements multi-step etch recipes using multiple process gases and has been optimized for specific etches of specific films. Gases available in this configuration are N2, O2, SF6, CHF3, and He.

The Tegal 903e plasma dry etch equipment is used by the semiconductor industry for integrated circuit fabrication. It is an industry standard in single-wafer dry etch of silicon nitride, polysilicon, amorphous silicon, and silicon oxide. Wafers are transported to a reaction chamber utilizing a non-friction spatula wafer transport mechanism. A gas mixture is introduced into the Reaction Chamber and becomes reactive by the application of radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic radiation. The reactive mixture, or plasma, etches away material that is not covered by the masking photoresist. The etch process is terminated by time (a parameter specified in the recipe), the wafer is unloaded from the reaction chamber, and a new wafer is introduced repeating the cycle until all wafers have been processed.
