How does CVD furnace work?

CVD furnace system consists of high temperature tube furnace unit, reacting gas source precise control unit, vacuum pump station and corresponding assembling parts.

Vacuum pump is to remove the air from the reacting tube,and make sure there is no unwanted gases inside the reaction tube, after that the tube furnace will heat the reaction tube to a target temperature, then reacting gas source precise control unit can introduce different gases with a set ratio into the furnace tube for the chemical reaction, the chemical vapor deposition will be formed in the CVD furnace.

What is PECVD method?

PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) is a process used in semiconductor manufacturing to deposit thin films on microelectronic devices, photovoltaic cells, and display panels. In PECVD, a precursor is introduced to the reaction chamber in a gaseous state, and the assistance of plasma reactive media dissociates the precursor at much lower temperatures than with CVD. PECVD systems offer excellent film uniformity, low-temperature processing, and high throughput. They are used in a wide range of applications and will play an increasingly important role in the semiconductor industry as the demand for advanced electronic devices continues to grow.

What is the basic principle of CVD?

The basic principle of Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) is to expose a substrate to one or more volatile precursors that react or decompose on its surface to produce a thin film deposit. This process can be used for various applications, such as patterning films, insulation materials, and conducting metal layers. CVD is a versatile process that can synthesize coatings, powders, fibers, nanotubes, and monolithic components. It is also capable of producing most of the metal and metal alloys and their compounds, semiconductors, and nonmetal systems. The deposition of a solid on a heated surface from a chemical reaction in the vapor phase characterizes the CVD process.

What are the methods used to deposit thin films?

The two main methods used to deposit thin films are chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and physical vapor deposition (PVD). CVD involves introducing reactant gases into a chamber, where they react on the surface of the wafer to form a solid film. PVD does not involve chemical reactions; instead, vapors of constituent materials are created inside the chamber, which then condense on the wafer surface to form a solid film. Common types of PVD include evaporation deposition and sputtering deposition. The three types of evaporation deposition techniques are thermal evaporation, electron-beam evaporation, and inductive heating.

What is Mpcvd?

MPCVD stands for Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition and it is a process of depositing thin films onto a surface. It uses a vacuum chamber, microwave generator, and gas delivery system to create a plasma made up of reacting chemicals and necessary catalysts. MPCVD is heavily used in the ANFF network to deposit layers of diamond using methane and hydrogen to grow new diamond on a diamond-seeded substrate. It is a promising technology for producing low-cost, high-quality large diamonds and is extensively used in the semiconductor and diamond cutting industry.

How does PACVD work?

PACVD works by introducing a mixture of precursor gases into a vacuum chamber, where a plasma is generated. The plasma source, typically a radio frequency (RF) generator, energizes the gases, breaking them down into reactive species. These reactive species then react with the substrate surface, forming a thin film coating. The plasma also aids in the activation and cleaning of the substrate, promoting adhesion and improving film properties.

The plasma ball doesn't contact the cavity wall, making the diamond growth process free from impurities and enhancing the diamond's quality. The MPCVD system consists of a vacuum chamber, a microwave generator, and a gas delivery system that controls the flow of gas into the chamber.

PACVD is PECVD?

Yes, PACVD (plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition) is another term for PECVD (plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition). This process uses an energetic plasma formed in an electric field to activate the CVD reaction at lower temperatures than thermal CVD, making it ideal for substrates or deposited films with a low thermal budget. By varying the plasma, additional control can be added to the properties of the deposited film. Most PECVD processes are conducted at low pressure to stabilize the discharge plasma.

What are the rotary furnace types?

The rotary furnace types include rotary and tilting furnaces which have the ability to rotate and tilt, allowing for uniformity in drying and coating applications. KINTEK furnaces increase efficiency by offering multi-zone heating options, utilizing alumina fiber for refractory linings, and using temperature controllers.

How do thermal evaporation sources work?

Thermal evaporation sources work by passing electrical current through a resistive material, which heats up to high temperatures. This heat is transferred to the evaporant, causing it to melt and vaporize. The vapor then travels through a vacuum chamber and condenses onto a substrate, forming a thin film.

What is the advantage of CVD system?

  • Wide range of films can be produced, metal film, nonmetal film and multi-component alloy film as required. At the same time, it can prepare high-quality crystals that are difficult to obtain by other methods, such as GaN, BP, etc.
  • The film forming speed is fast, usually several microns per minute or even hundreds of microns per minute. It is possible to simultaneously deposit large quantities of coatings with uniform composition, which is incomparable to other film preparation methods, such as liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE).
  • The working conditions are carried out under normal pressure or low vacuum conditions, so the coating has good diffraction, and the workpieces with complex shapes can be uniformly coated, which is much superior to PVD.
  • Due to the mutual diffusion of reaction gas, reaction product and substrate, a coating with good adhesion strength can be obtained, which is crucial for preparing surface strengthened films such as wear-resistant and anti-corrosion films.
  • Some films grow at a temperature far lower than the melting point of the film material. Under the condition of low temperature growth, the reaction gas and reactor wall and impurities contained in them almost do not react, so a film with high purity and good crystallinity can be obtained.
  • Chemical vapor deposition can obtain a smooth deposition surface. This is because compared with LPE, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is carried out under high saturation, with high nucleation rate, high nucleation density, and uniform distribution on the whole plane, resulting in a macroscopic smooth surface. At the same time, in chemical vapor deposition, the average free path of molecules (atoms) is much larger than LPE, so the spatial distribution of molecules is more uniform, which is conducive to the formation of a smooth deposition surface.
  • Low radiation damage, which is a necessary condition for manufacturing metal oxide semiconductors (MOS) and other devices

What are the advantages of PECVD?

The primary advantages of PECVD are its ability to operate at lower deposition temperatures, providing better conformity and step coverage on uneven surfaces, tighter control of the thin film process, and high deposition rates.

The basic principle of plasma chemical vapor deposition technology is that under the action of RF or DC electric field, the source gas is ionized to form a plasma, the low-temperature plasma is used as the energy source, an appropriate amount of reaction gas is introduced, and the plasma discharge is used to activate the reaction gas and realize chemical vapor deposition.

According to the method of generating plasma, it can be divided into RF plasma, DC plasma and microwave plasma CVD, etc...

What is the difference between ALD and PECVD?

ALD is a thin film deposition process that allows for atomic layer thickness resolution, excellent uniformity of high aspect ratio surfaces and pinhole-free layers. This is achieved by the continuous formation of atomic layers in a self-limiting reaction. PECVD, on the other hand, involves mixing the source material with one or more volatile precursors using a plasma to chemically interact and breakdown the source material. The processes use heat with higher pressures leading to a more reproducible film where the film thicknesses could be managed by time/power. These films are more stoichiometric, denser and are capable of growing higher quality insulator films.
