PolySilicon can be sputtered in Alcatel and be deposited in the PolySilicon furnace. In the chart below you can compare the two different deposition methodes:


Sputter (Alcatel) Sputter(PVD co-sputter/evaporation) Furnace PolySi (Furnace LPCVD pSi) Sputter (Wordentec) Sputter IBSD IonfabIBE/IBSD Ionfab 300
Batch size
  • Up to 1x4" wafers
  • smaller pieces
  • 4x6" wafers or
  • 4x4" wafers or
  • 4x2" wafers
  • 1-25 wafers of 4"
  • For other sizes ask the furnace team
  • 24x2" wafers or
  • 6x4" wafers or
  • 6x6" wafers
Pre-clean RF Ar clean RF Ar clean RCA clean for wafers that are not fresh form the box. RF Ar clean
Layer thickness 10Å to 1µm 10Å to about 3000Å ~50Å to 2µm, if thicker layers are needed please ask the furnace team. 10Å to about 3000Å
Deposition rate 2Å/s to 15Å/s Dependent on process parameters, but in the order of 1 Å/s. See more here
  • undoped, boron doped:~100Å/min
  • Phospher doped:~20Å/min

Dependent on process parameters, but in the order of 1 Å/s. See more here.

Process temperature ? Option: heating wafer up to 400 deg C 560 oC (amorph) and 620 oC (poly) ?
Step coverage Poor . Good .
Adhesion Bad for pyrex, for other materials we do not know . Good for fused silica, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon .
Substrate material allowed Pyrex, fused silica, silicon, metals, oxide, nitride, blue tape Pyrex, fused silica, silicon, metals, oxide, nitride Fused silica, Silicon, oxide, nitride Pyrex, fused silica, silicon, metals, oxide, nitride
Doping facility None None Can be doped during deposition with Boron and/or Phosphorous None
