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
Batch size
  • Up to 1x4" wafers
  • smaller pieces
  • 4x6" wafers or
  • 4x4" wafers or
  • 2x2" wafers
  • 1-25 wafers of 4"
  • For other sizes ask the furnace team
Pre-clean RF Ar clean RF Ar clean RCA clean for wafers that are not fresh form the box.
Layer thickness 10Å to 1µm 10Å to about 3000Å ~50Å to 2µm, if thicker layers are needed please ask the furnace team.
Deposition rate 2Å/s to 15Å/s Dependent on process parameters, but in the order of 1 Å/s
  • undoped, boron doped:~100Å/min
  • Phospher doped:~20Å/min
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
Doping facility None None Can be doped during deposition with Boron and/or Phosphorous
