PlasmaLab M80 Plus – Chlorine

The PlasmaLab M80 Plus – Chlorine is an open load reactive ion etch system. Process gases are boron trichloride (BCl3), chlorine (Cl2), nitrogen (N2), carbon tetraflouride (CF4), oxygen (O2) and argon (Ar). The system is for the etching of compound semiconductors and metals. Masks allowed in this system are photoresist and dielectrics. This tool requires pre-requisite training on other techniques: metrology.
