Corial D250 PECVD system in brief

Corial D250 is designed for low volume production over a wide range of applications for the specialty semiconductor markets.

The Corial D250 PECVD system is based on CORIAL’s unique reactor design. It houses an isothermal, pressurized reactor within a vacuum vessel, which is different from conventional PECVD reactors with heated substrate holders. Featuring a next-generation gas showerhead and symmetrical pumping, the Corial D250 delivers excellent deposition uniformity for a wide variety of applications.

Optimizing film stress control is simple to accomplish thanks to the reactor’s symmetrical design.

COSMA Pulse software enables pulsing of any recipe parameter. The pulsing feature enlarges the process window to achieve better control of film properties, and supports Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) in the Corial D250.

The Corial D250 PECVD system achieves rapid and uniform deposition for a wide range of materials including SiO2, Si3N4, SiOCH, SiOF, SiC and aSi-H films, on wafers up to 200 mm diameter.

This PECVD system can operate for years without the need for manual cleaning.
