# Corial D250L PECVD system

Get maximum flexibility for deposition processes and substrate shapes with the Corial D250L PECVD system

[THE PRODUCT IN BRIEF](https://corial.plasmatherm.com/en/products/corial-d250l-pecvd-deposition-tool#description)  
[KEY BENEFITS](https://corial.plasmatherm.com/en/products/corial-d250l-pecvd-deposition-tool#benefits)[RELATED PROCESSES](https://corial.plasmatherm.com/en/products/corial-d250l-pecvd-deposition-tool#processes)[UPGRADES](https://corial.plasmatherm.com/en/products/corial-d250l-pecvd-deposition-tool#upgrades)

## Corial D250L PECVD system in brief

The Corial D250L PECVD tool is designed for low volume production over a wide range of applications for specialty semiconductor markets.

The Corial D250L 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 D250L delivers excellent deposition uniformity for a wide variety of applications.

Equipped with a vacuum load lock, the Corial D250L delivers stable process conditions, short pump down times, and enhanced throughput.

 

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 D250L.

The Corial D250L 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. Optimizing film stress control is simple to accomplish thanks to the reactor’s symmetrical design.

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