What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

An atomic layer deposition tool is a thin-film deposition machine used to build very uniform coatings one surface reaction at a time. This class of equipment is used when film conformity and thickness control are important in microfabrication.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Atomic layer deposition works by repeating self-limiting precursor reactions so that each cycle deposits only a very small amount of material. This cycle-based method is used to produce conformal films on structures with complex topography.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

This type of deposition tool sits in the thin-film formation part of the semiconductor process flow. It is used after earlier patterning or surface-preparation steps and before later integration steps that build complete device structures.

Applications

The Olympia system is intended for depositing low-temperature, high-quality films for multiple applications in semiconductor device manufacturing.^[1]
