Ion Wave 10 Gas Plasma System

ION WAVE 10 BATCH PLASMA SYSTEM


Microwave generates higher density plasma (ions/radicles) and a lower

induced bias voltage across the substrate compared to rf plasma. Because

of this fact, the ashing rate of photoresist in microwave plasma is expected

to be higher and the plasma damage lower. The IoN Wave 10 plasma

system is designed for R&D and small scale production applications. PVA

TePla is a proven and trusted resource globally for high-quality, reliable,

cost-effective and easy to operate gas plasma systems. It offers some of

the most advanced and innovative solutions for a wide variety of

applications.
