The Applied Materials P 5000 Mark II Dielectric is a dielectric etch system. The Applied Materials P 5000 Mark II Dielectric processes 6-inch wafers.[1][2]
Dielectric etch systems generally use a plasma to remove insulating films from exposed regions while protected regions remain covered by patterned resist or another mask. Plasma etch processes for dielectric materials typically rely on controlled gas chemistry, chamber conditions, and wafer handling to shape openings with the profile needed for subsequent fabrication steps.
Dielectric etch is performed after the deposition of dielectric films and after lithography defines the pattern in photoresist. Dielectric etch is followed by steps such as cleaning, metallization, or further deposition, depending on the device flow.
Dielectric etch systems are used in integrated circuit manufacturing to pattern insulating materials. Typical applications include forming contact holes, vias, trenches, spacer features, hard mask features, and etch stop related structures in dielectric films.
