Un sistema per il controllo dell'etching ionico
Rilevamento dell'End Point per i processi di etching ionico e al plasma
Il IMP-EPD è uno spettrometro di massa per ioni secondari molto resistente e con un sistema di pompaggio differenziale per l'analisi degli ioni secondari generati in processi di etching a fascio di ioni. Il sistema comprende un software integrato con specifici algoritmi sviluppati per ottimizzare il controllo del processo.
Overview
The IMP-EPD is a differentially pumped, ruggedised secondary ion mass spectrometer for the analysis of secondary ions from the ion beam etch process. The system includes integrated software with process specific algorithms developed for optimum process control.
The IMP-EPD system is process proven for the production of high specification thin film devices for applications including magnetic thin films, high temperature superconductors and III-V semiconductors.
