What it is

The CHA 1000 E-Beam is an electron-beam deposition system in the CHA 1000 family.[2]

The CHA 1000 E-Beam evaporator is an e-beam evaporator platform with a 24 by 30 inch stainless steel bell jar, a 4 pocket gun, a lift off dome, a CTI 10 cryopump with lines, cable and compressor, a two stage direct drive roughing pump, a new touch screen valve controller, a new ion and thermocouple gauge, and a new thickness monitor.[1][2]

How it works

The CHA 1000 E-Beam uses a vacuum and pumping stack that includes a cryopump and a roughing pump, together with valve control and film thickness monitoring.[1][2]

The CHA 1000 E-Beam includes a lift off dome and a bell jar enclosure that support vacuum processing and chamber access.[1][2]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The CHA 1000 E-Beam sits in the physical vapor deposition stage of a semiconductor process flow.

The CHA 1000 E-Beam is used after substrate preparation and before later patterning or integration steps that require deposited thin films.

Applications

The CHA 1000 E-Beam is used for thin-film deposition by electron-beam evaporation.[1][2][3]
