Unaxis ICP-PECVD is UP for Non-GapFill
Tool is up for NON-GapFill (450W RF Bias) Recipes. Other Std SiO2/SiN deps are available. Next Week Monday Oct 16th to Wed 18th we will allow GapFill (450W RF Bias) recipes to be run. Please plan your process accordingly. Also we are still testing our own GapFill recipe that hopefully reduces flakes. Once this is ready you’ll want to qualify our new recipe to make sure it works for your application, as the old GapFill recipe will eventually be deprecated & disallowed.
