Thin Film
1. Film A Formation by Deposition without Cause Changes to B
① Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) -Film is formed by atoms directly transported
from source to the substrate through gas phase
② Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) -Film is formed by chemical reaction on the
surface of substrate (LPCVD, APCVD,PECVD,MOCVD)
③ Epitaxy – Using CVD process to form a single crystal film
2. Film Growth by interaction of A and B
① Thermal Oxidation
② Thermal Nitridation
③ Formation of A (Silicides) by Direct Reaction of a Metal and B
3. Spin Coating: Coater for Photoresist

•Sputtering is a term used
to describe the mechanism
in which atoms are ejected
from the surface of a
material when that surface
is stuck by sufficiency
energetic particles.
•Alternative to evaporation.
•First discovered in 1852,
and developed as a thin film
deposition technique by
Langmuir in 1920.

RF Etching: Essentially the reverse process of RF diode sputter deposition, in which the substrate table becomes the cathode (negative pole) and the target assembly becomes the anode (positive pole). Under these circumstances, surface material from the substrates is ejected. Surface impurities are ejected along with substrates material, making this process useful for pre-cleaning substrate prior to sputter deposition. In order to prevent ejected material from contaminating the target, s shutter is positioned between target and substrate. Bias sputtering: Combines the DC or RF sputtering and the RF etching operations. While DC or RF power is applied to the target, a small amount of RF is also applied to the substrate table. As a result, the substrate and target are both bombarded by ions ( the substrate to a lesser extent than the target ). In many applications this process yields superior quality films than can be attained using DC or RF sputtering with grounded substrates. Bias sputtering influences the crystal structure, and tends to re-sputter trapped argon from the growing film during deposition and rearrange individual atoms of the sputtered material; this improves stoichiometry and step coverage. Bias sputtering can be used to adjust film resistivity and film stress to desired levels.

Reactive Sputtering Some metals, such as nitrides and oxides, are best deposited by this method: the target is the parent metal and a small amount of nitrogen or oxygen is introduced into the process chamber along with the argon sputtering gas. Because ionized gases are typically highly reactive, a film deposited in a mixture of argon and a reactive gas will often form a compound with the reactive gas (e.g., a nitride or an oxide). Co-Deposition Sometimes called co-sputtering or dual deposition, co-deposition is identical in principle and practice to other types of sputter deposition, except that two targets (typically of different materials) are simultaneously activated. Substrates passing sequentially and repeatedly beneath the targets are coated with alternating, very thin films of two materials. Under certain circumstances, the resultant film can be equivalent to or better than one formed using a composite target. During co-deposition, both targets may be RF, both DC, or one RF and one DC.

Allwin21 Sputter Equipment Proven Deposition Rates(Con.)
The seller is neither responsible for any customers' applications and processes nor for any production loss due to machine failure, damage, or shut-down by any causes.
Rates shown above are given in angstroms/min/kw, and are typical only. Actual
rates for any given system will depend upon process and system parameters.
Rates are approximately linear with applied power except where otherwise
indicated. Some materials, due to their nature, are limited to power levels
substantially less than the maximum power ratings for each cathode type. 1 Insufficient data available for most materials with RF Delta operation - DC
magnetron recommended for metals. 2 Ferromagnetic materials - magnetron mode is possible with thin targets only but
not recommended. 3 Dielectric materials - require the use of RF power. Rates are non-linear.
