AJA Magnetron Sputtering System
The AJA International ATC Orion-5 confocal magnetron sputtering system at IAMM has the ability to sputter thin films of both dielectrics and metals. Three materials can be deposited in one process using either DC or RF biasing. RF substrate biasing is available along with substrate heating up to 850 °K.
Karl Suss Contact Printer
The Karl Suss MA6 optical lithography system is configured to process four inch or smaller wafers. The system utilizes a mercury lamp, but is ideal for I-line resist processes. This system can be used for both positive and negative patterning processes in-combination with other equipment within the MPRF to create advanced structures as required by the user.
Plasmatherm PECVD
The Plasmatherm Shuttelock SLR-730-PECVD system is equipped to grow poly-silicon, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, and silicon oxide. The system is also capable of growing other carbon-containing films, such as graphene
Unaxis RIE
The Unaxis Shuttelock SLR-760-RIE system is designed to etch various forms of silicon containing compounds using fluorine chemistry. Further, oxygen-based etching processes are also available. The system can process up to eight inch wafers
General Equipment
The MPRF has various items to support users in various processes, including a 1500°C GSL-1500X-50-UL tube furnace, SCS 6800 spin coater, Harrick Plasma PDC-001 oxygen plasma cleaner, and Kulicke & Soffa 4523D wedge bonder. Other sample processing equipment is available in supporting IAMM facilities.
