Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The AIX G 5 WW EPI Reactor sits in the deposition stage of semiconductor manufacturing. The tool belongs in the sequence after wafer preparation and before later device-forming steps that use the epitaxial layer.

Epitaxial silicon deposition is a front-end process used to build a controlled silicon layer on the wafer before subsequent patterning, doping, and device fabrication steps.

Applications

The AIX G 5 WW EPI Reactor is used for epitaxial silicon deposition on 4-inch wafers.[1][2]
