What it is

The Tokyo Electron Unity II E 85 DD is an etch system.[1][2]

The Unity II E 85 DD is an 8-inch oxide etch system.[1][2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

An etch system removes selected material from a wafer surface by exposing the wafer to a controlled reactive process environment.

An oxide etch system is used to process oxide films while leaving other patterned areas intact.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

An etch system sits in the pattern-transfer portion of semiconductor manufacturing after lithographic patterning defines where material removal is needed.

An oxide etch step commonly follows mask alignment and exposure when a patterned dielectric layer must be opened or trimmed.

Applications

The Tokyo Electron Unity II E 85 DD is used for oxide etching on 8-inch wafers.[1][2]
