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 (IBE/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.
