Chemical Dry Etching System
CDE series

Bringing the Endless Possibilities of CDE to the Unseen Aspects of Processing

This isotropic etching system applicable to wafers of φ75 mm to 300 mm has been favoured by customers for many years. While having many achievements for round etching including Si and SiO2, recently this system has also been used for the improvement of device properties by using its remote plasma feature.
It also has a proven track record in transporting and adsorbing SiC wafers, and contributes to the creation of high quality devices with plasma damage-free technology.

Features

Isotropic Etching

By generating plasma outside of the chamber and performing the etching processing with radical compounds only, this system is capable of perfect isotropic etching processing. It is used for applications such as rounding trench pattern openings and smoothing surface roughness.

Plasma Damage-Free Feature

Due to the long distance from a plasma to a wafer, the ion generated within the plasma is deactivated and does not impact the wafer. This feature is applied to removal of damaged layers after RIE processing.

Wafer Being Processed
The surface of the wafer is illuminated with chemical luminescence
Plasma Illumination
Unique remote plasma source
