Introduction Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) systems were initially developed for low-temperature film deposition. However, recent diversification in research and development needs has led to a demand for systems capable of high-temperature film deposition. PECVD systems, a cornerstone of Samco, utilize silicon tetrahydride (SiH4) gas for silicon nitride (SiN) and silicon dioxide (SiO2) film deposition.…
Atomic Layer Deposition Tutorial: Introduction to ALD Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is a thin-film deposition technique that utilizes self-limiting surface chemical reactions to achieve precise layer-by-layer growth. By alternately introducing and exhausting two or more reactants into the reaction chamber, ALD enables excellent film thickness control, superior step coverage, and high conformality. As demand for…
Micro- and nanoscale device research, deposition and etching processes using RIE and PECVD for advanced structures.
Introduction One example of a 4H-SiC power device is the MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor). While planar MOSFETs have been developed in the past, trench-type MOSFETs have attracted attention to meet demands for high efficiency, such as “low on-resistance.” Samco has been working on trench processing using ICP etching equipment, which is essential…
