The cluster-based multi-chamber high vacuum sputtering deposition system is a robotic cluster tool with two deposition chambers sharing the same distribution trasfer station and the load-lock. The equipment has been installed and accepted in the clean-room during January of 2020. The purpose of the tool is to deposit a variety of materials using DC/RF/PulseDC/HIPIMS magnetron sputtering with or without RF substrate bias.

<b>PC 3</b>  (process chamber 3) is dedicated to oxygen free materials - nitrides and metals. It is equipped with 1 x 4” + 2 x 3” magnetrons and supplied with N<sub>2</sub> process gas for reactive deposition. Both chambers allow heating of substrates up to 600 <sup>o</sup>C. The equipment is located in cleanroom A-5 where the user can acces the cassette loader.
