What it is

The Ulvac Ceraus Z 1101 is a deposition tool in the PVD category.[1][2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Deposition tools in this class place thin films onto substrates by transporting material from a source to the wafer surface in a controlled vacuum environment.

PVD tools commonly form films by physical transfer mechanisms such as evaporation or sputtering, and the deposited layer builds on the wafer surface rather than being created by bulk growth.

Where it fits in the process flow

The Ulvac Ceraus Z 1101 serves as a thin-film formation platform for wafer-level processing.[1][2]

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Deposition tools of this type are used to form conductive, barrier, adhesion, and other functional thin films on wafers.

PVD deposition is used when a process needs a controlled surface film rather than material added by wet coating or thermal bulk modification.
