TFS-500 is an ALD reactor for thin film deposition. The design allows the deposition on wafers up to 200 mm, solid/porous 3D objects and powder substance. The reactor is suitable for doping, protective coating, functional surface build-up and thin film processing.

Deposition temperature range 25...500  ºC.

Al2O3

- From room temperature up to 220 ºC.

- Deposition on temperature sensitive materials such as polymers.

- Protective barrier films on polymers and ceramics.

-  Intermediate adhesion layers for metallization

- Insulating layers on metals 

TiO2 and Nitrogen doped TiO2,

- From room temperature up to 350 ºC

- Deposition on temperature sensitive materials such as polymers

- Crystallinity control of TiO2

- Protective barrier films on polymers

- Surface functionalization

Other oxides: ZrO2, SiO2 

Nitrides: TiN, AlN 

Carbides: TiC, TiCN

 

Precursor sources 

 Reactor design allows deposition of various film materials using the liguid, solid and gas precursors.

- Liguid sources (4)  -  5...25 ºC

- Hot solid source - up to 500 ºC

- Hot liquid source - Liguid precursors can be vaporized at elevated temperature up to 200 ºC.

- Gas sources (3) 

Plasma reactor

- Allows deposition down to room temperature.

- Plasma is generated by capacitive coupling directly in the deposition chamber.

- Plasma is separated from the substrate by a grid

- Plasma insitu pre- and post-treatments

- Equipped with Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES)

General 

- Dimensions 1600 mm x 900 mm x 1930 mm (L x W x H)

- Connecting power Typically 10 kW

 

Vacuum chamber

- Outer dimensions 600 mm x 600 mm

- Internal free volume 500 mm x 500 mm.

- Operating temperature range 25...500 ºC
