Phantom RIE

Phantom RIE

The Trion PHANTOM RIE is a plasma etcher for fluorine and oxygen-based chemistries.

It has a compact, modular design built on a space-saving platform. 


The bottom electrode is available in either 200 mm or 300 mm sizes and, depending on electrode configuration, can process single wafers or mounted parts 2" - 300 mm. It also has multiple size batch capability: 4x3" ; 3x4" ; 7x2".

APPLICATIONS:

Fluorine Etch Processes (SF6, CF4, CHF3, O2): Carbon, Si, Epoxy, SiO2, InSb, Si3N4, Ir, SiC, Mo, Ta, Nb, TaN, OxyNitride, TiW, Polyimide, TiN, Pr (examples: SiLK or SU8), W, Quartz.


OPTIONS INCLUDE:

  • Electrostatic chuck (E-chuck) to more effectively keep the wafer cool during the etch process, using a helium pressure controller to build up a cooling layer of helium on the backside of the wafer.
  • Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) to create higher-density plasma, thereby increasing etch rates and anisotropy.

Trion offers custom carriers. Shown here are examples: single-wafer and four-wafer carriers designed for processing 100 mm wafers on 300 mm chuck etching systems.

TRION BENEFITS:

  • Full process support both prior and subsequent to purchase.
  • Worldwide sales and service offices.
  • Dedicated on-site Trion Machine Shop offers quick customization and a fast turn-around time.
  • Trion is a private, USA-based company with 30+ years of industry experience.
