What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

Applied Materials Endura is a physical vapor deposition tool used in semiconductor manufacturing. It is part of the deposition class of equipment that places thin films onto wafers as part of integrated-circuit fabrication.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A physical vapor deposition system forms a thin film by moving material from a source into a vacuum environment and condensing it on the wafer surface. In semiconductor production, this class of tool is built around a chamber where film formation occurs under controlled conditions so the deposited layer has the required thickness and composition.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Deposition tools sit in the middle of the semiconductor process flow, after wafer preparation and before later patterning, etch, and interconnect integration steps. They are used whenever a device stack requires a new film to be added to the wafer.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

This class of equipment is used to deposit thin metallic or compound films on wafers for semiconductor devices and related structures. Typical uses include conductive layers, barrier layers, and other stack elements needed in integrated-circuit fabrication.
