Plasma chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) is a core link in semiconductor manufacturing. It is crucial to ensure the process performance of the entire chip and directly determines the reliability and quality of semiconductor devices. Among them, amorphous carbon hard mask (PECVD Carbon) is an important process in realizing the advanced semiconductor process patterning process. This film has a high selective etching ratio for dielectric layer films such as polysilicon, silicon oxide, and silicon nitride, and can support customers to achieve high aspect ratio feature patterning. At the same time, the Carbon film can be easily removed in subsequent processes to improve the yield and reduce the cost of process development. Under the current situation of limited domestic Fab factory lithography machines, this film layer will be widely used in the field of advanced processes in the future. At the same time, this film layer is also suitable for special process requirements in the pan-semiconductor field.

Shouxin Semiconductor's first 12-inch Dubhe series plasma enhanced equipment can correspond to customers' amorphous carbon thin film processes of 90/55/28nm and below, matching the process specifications of similar equipment of mainstream foreign manufacturers, and has the advantages of higher production efficiency and wider process adjustment window. The equipment is equipped with a self-developed RF control system, atmospheric and vacuum transmission platform, and a self-developed software control system. It can match the customer's EAP and MES system integration to assist customers in automated and efficient production. It can be widely used in chip manufacturing fields such as logic chips, memory chips, MEMS, power devices, silicon-based microdisplays, silicon photonics and advanced packaging. At the same time, Shouxin Semiconductor can develop and optimize processes according to customer needs and provide customers with long-term technical support.
Amorphous Carbon is used as a hard mask for FinFETs and Memory. A hard mask is a removable material used to protect the pattern in the etching process SiO2 in the old times.
