LPCVD silicon nitride can be made in a [[Specific Process Knowledge/Thin film deposition/B2 Furnace LPCVD Nitride|LPCVD nitride furnace]]. Danchip has two LPCVD nitride furnaces: One for deposition of stoichiometric nitride on 4 inch or on 6 inch wafers and one for deposition of stoichiometric nitride or low stress nitride on 4 inch wafers.
LPCVD silicon nitride can be made in a [[Specific Process Knowledge/Thin film deposition/B2 Furnace LPCVD Nitride|LPCVD nitride furnace]]. Danchip has two LPCVD nitride furnaces: A new furnace for deposition of stoichiometric nitride on 4 inch or on 6 inch wafers and an older furnace for deposition of stoichiometric nitride or low stress nitride on 4 inch wafers.


The LPCVD nitride deposition is a batch process, meaning that you can run a batch of 25-35 wafers at a time. The deposition takes place at temperatures of 780-850 degrees Celsius. The LPCVD silicon nitride has a good step coverage, and the film thickness is very uniform over the wafers. On the furnaces we have standard processes for deposition of stoichiometric nitride (Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub>) and for deposition of low stress nitride (SNR).
