The Ulvac SIV 200 ITO is a sputtering deposition system. The Ulvac SIV 200 ITO is an in-line vacuum sputtering system that uses single-source reactive magnetron sputtering to deposit oxide films such as ITO. The Ulvac SIV 200 ITO features a 3-station process module (P1, P2, P3) with a 5 kW pulsed DC power supply.[1][2]

What it is

The Ulvac SIV 200 ITO is a sputtering deposition system.[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

The Ulvac SIV 200 ITO uses sputtering, a physical vapor deposition method that removes material from a target and transfers it to a substrate as a thin film.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The Ulvac SIV 200 ITO sits in the thin-film deposition segment of the process flow, before downstream patterning, etch, or device assembly steps that use the deposited film.

Applications

The Ulvac SIV 200 ITO is used for indium tin oxide and other transparent conductive film deposition.[2]

What do the numbers mean?

Power & electrical3

Power supply
5 kW pulsed DC power supply[2]
Accurate?
P3 station role
P3 is dedicated to ITO or other transparent conductive films (TCF); has O₂ MFC and 13.56 MHz power supply/match to maintain ITO stoichiometry[2]
Accurate?
Sputtering mode
Single-source reactive magnetron sputtering; a single-source RF magnetron deposits oxide films like ITO and A-Si[2]
Accurate?

Vacuum & pumping2

Vacuum system
Load lock has roughing pump and water pump; process chamber has roughing pump T-ed to turbo/water pump and cryo pump auto-load; uses Ulvac 10-inch cryo and 10-inch water pump/turbo[2]
Accurate?
Optional high-temperature oxidation chamber
An integrated high-temperature atmospheric-pressure oxidation chamber is available to deposit refractory oxide films with high oxidation rates and film purity[2]
