PlasmaLab M80 Plus – Fluorine

The PlasmaLab M80 Plus – Fluorine is an open load reactive ion etch system. Process gases are sulfur hexaflouride (SF6), triflouromethane (CHF3), carbon tetraflouride (CF4), oxygen (O2) and (Ar). The system is for the etching of silicon (Si), silicon dioxide (SiO2) and silicon nitride (Si3N4). Photoresist is the only mask allowed in this system.

This tool requires pre-requisite training on other techniques: metrology.
