Excimer 바카라사이트 Enables Pilot and Volume Pulsed 바카라사이트 Deposition of Thin Films
The Challenge
Thin-film deposition techniques are applied in a wide variety of markets such as MEMS, Semiconductors, Photovoltaics, OLED displays, and RF filters for 5G communication. New complex material systems with increasingly critical material properties require constant expansion and quality improvement of thin-film deposition technologies, supporting a wider range of thin-film processes while also enabling flexibility in process optimization. Solmates a company specialized in pulsed 바카라사이트 deposition (PLD) located in Enschede, The Netherlands, set out to develop robust and user-friendly deposition equipment for the evolving thin film industry.
The Solut바카라사이트
The Solmates team uses PLD, a physical vapor deposition method that relies on excimer 바카라사이트 light to deposit materials of complex stoichiometry on conducting and non-conducting substrates. Their PLD systems provide full control over deposition parameters, which enables engineering of the final thin film properties such as composition, crystallinity, density, porosity, and film stress. Thin-film manufacturers can attain electrical and optical thin film properties unachievable with other deposition technologies, and even venture into new material systems and applications. TheCoherent LEAP excimer 바카라사이트 serieswas selected by Solmates for its combination of high (up to 1 Joule per pulse) energy and scalable power (80 to 300 W) which determines the PLD system throughput. Plus, LEAP 바카라사이트s have a well-established track record of 24/7 industrial reliability and minimized cost per wafer in demanding high-volume production environments.
The Result
Today, Solmates PLD platforms can be integrated to any standard cluster frame to support pilot-scale as well as high-volume production. The advent of high-quality PLD processes on industry wafer sizes up to 300 mm, allows industrial customers to broaden their thin film 바카라사이트 capabilities and add some 30 new materials and material systems to their 바카라사이트 portfolio.
“Coherent excimer 바카라사이트s are at the heart of our pulsed 바카라사이트 deposition systems”
