What it is

The Applied Materials eMax CT Plus Dry is a dry etcher.[2]

The Applied Materials eMax CT Plus Dry is a semiconductor etch tool in the Applied Materials eMax family.[2]

The Applied Materials eMax CT Plus Dry is configured as a 1ch SiN CHA system with three loadports and a sidewall configuration.[1][2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A dry etcher removes material by exposing a wafer to a controlled plasma or reactive gas environment rather than by using liquid chemistries.

A dry etcher uses process gases, plasma conditions, chamber geometry, and endpoint control to shape etch directionality and selectivity.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The Applied Materials eMax CT Plus Dry belongs in the wafer pattern-transfer portion of semiconductor manufacturing.

The Applied Materials eMax CT Plus Dry is used after lithographic patterning and before later cleaning, inspection, or downstream fabrication steps.

Applications

The Applied Materials eMax CT Plus Dry is used for dry etching of silicon nitride.[2]
