At the moment DANCHIP has 3 PECVDs that can deposite silicon oxide with or without dopants of Boron, Phosphorous or Germanium. PECVD1 and PECVD3 are for silicon based processing. PECVD2 is for III-V processing and will be describes under III-V processing. Look at the PECVD page to learn more about the PECVDs at DANCHIP. All though PECVD1 and PECVD3 are very much alike you cannot count on the a recipe on one system will give exactly the same results on the other system.
