What is it?

The Kurt Lesker ALD-150LX is listed as a plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD) system. The source states that it is load-locked, and that it includes an in situ ellipsometer system (Film Sense FS-1 Multi-Wavelength) for monitoring film growth. It is described as supporting requested growth of Al2O3, HfO2, ZrO2, HfZrO2, TiN, and Ga2O3 films, with substrate specs including no exposed organics, no exposed high-outgassing materials, and up to full 150 mm wafers.

What can it run?

Process applications and technology nodes documented for this tool.

  • Plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition
  • Conformal fabrication of thin films with atomic-scale control
  • Growth of requested oxide, nitride, and oxide-related films
