Firebird

Veeco Firebird batch ALD system is an innovative, fully automated solution for high volume production of pinhole-free oxide layers for deposition of dielectrics, passivation, encapsulation, and seed layers films.  Built on the proven Phoenix ALD system, the Firebird’s unique modular architecture decouples substrate heat-up and cool-down and mitigates wafer breakage with its innovative batch transfer design – a unique advantage for customers using fragile wafers such as LTO, LNO, and Glass.
Capable of handling 100, 150, 200, & 300mm wafers, the Firebird couples unmatched flexibility and performance at the lowest cost-of-ownership.

 

Features

  • Batch deposition of oxide films for seed layers, encapsulation & barrier layers, optical coatings
  • Effective parallel processing for best-in-class throughput
  • Decoupled thermal management for preheat and cool-down
  • Zero-wafer handling at elevated temperature for fragile / temperature sensitive substrates (glass, quartz, LNO/LTO, GaN)
  • Flexible and upgradable modular configurability
  • Seamless wafer scalability (100 to 300mm)
  • SECS/GEM equipment communication
  • SEMI S2 compliance
  • Veeco worldwide sales, service and support

Configurability advantage

The modular system configuration can be effectively tailored to minimize process flow bottlenecks and offers outstanding processing flexibility.
