Process Control Data

See linked page for process control data (calibration data over time, such as dep. rate, refractive index, stress etc.) over time, for a selection of highly used tools/films.

Deposition Tools/Materials Table

The Key/Legend for this table's A...R6 values is at the bottom of the page.

Process Ranking Table

Processes in the table above are ranked by their "Process Maturity Level" as follows:

Process Level Description of Process Level Ranking
A Process Allowed and materials available but never done
R1 Process has been ran at least once
R2 Process has been ran and/or procedure is documented or/and data available
R3 Process has been ran, procedure is documented, and data is available
R4 Process has a documented procedure with regular (≥4x per year) data or lookahead/in-Situ control available
R5 Process has a documented procedure with regular (≥4x per year) data and lookahead/in-Situ control available
R6 Process has a documented procedure, regular ( ≥4x per year) data, and control charts/limits available
