What it is

The Tokyo Electron Telius is a dry etcher used in semiconductor manufacturing. The equipment is categorized as a dry etch system and is configured for 300 mm wafer processing.[1][2][3]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Dry etchers remove material from a wafer surface using a plasma of reactive gases. The Telius is a dry etch system; the specific etch technology employed is not detailed in the available sources.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Dry etching is a subtractive patterning step that follows photoresist development and precedes resist stripping. The Telius is used in the front-end-of-line or back-end-of-line processing to define features on the wafer.
