PolySilicon can be deposited in several Danchip tools. Either it can be sputtered or be deposited in the PolySilicon furnace. In the chart below you can compare the two different deposition methods:


Sputter (PVD co-sputter/evaporation) Furnace PolySi (Furnace LPCVD pSi) Sputter (Wordentec) Sputter (IBE/IBSD Ionfab 300) Sputter (Alcatel)
Batch size
  • 4x 6" wafers or
  • 4x 4" wafers or
  • 4x 2" wafers
  • 1-25 wafers of 4"
  • For other sizes ask the ThinFilm group
  • 24x 2" wafers or
  • 6x 4" wafers or
  • 6x 6" wafers
  • Several small samples mounted with capton tape
  • 1x 50 mm wafer
  • 1x 100 mm wafer
  • 1x 150 mm wafer
  • 1x 200 mm wafer
  • Up to 1x4" wafers
  • smaller pieces
Pre-clean RF Ar clean RCA clean for wafers that are not fresh form the box. RF Ar clean . RF Ar clean
Layer thickness 10Å to about 3000Å ~50Å to 2µm, if thicker layers are needed please ask the furnace team. 10Å to about 3000Å . 10Å to 2000Å
Deposition rate Dependent on process parameters, but in the order of 1 Å/s. See more here
  • undoped, boron doped:~100Å/min
  • Phospher doped:~20Å/min

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

About 6-8 nm/min. See more here. 2Å/s to 8Å/s (see below).
Process temperature Option: heating wafer up to 400 deg C 560 oC (amorph) and 620 oC (poly) ? . ?
Step coverage . Good . . Poor
Adhesion . Good for fused silica, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon . . Bad for pyrex, for other materials we do not know
