Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Deposition tools of this class are used after surface preparation steps when a dielectric or related film must be added to the wafer. Deposition tools of this class are followed by patterning, etch, metrology, or additional film-stack steps, depending on the device flow.

Applications

The Applied Materials Producer GT DARC uses SiH4, N2O, and NH3 gases.[2][1]
