Anric Technologies Benchtop Plasma Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) System AT650P

SKU#: AN-AT650P

Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is a powerful thin-film deposition technique. Compared to traditional Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), ALD allows even higher quality surface layer with pinhole-free, excellent uniformity and conformal (coating even the backside, filling holes even in porous substrates and powders). These advantages are related to its controllable process. The whole process is continuous and self-limiting, which means the material in the chamber is slowly deposited by a precursor separately in single atomic layer at a time and the steps are repeated until achieving desired thickness. It is widely used in electronic, biomedical, photovoltaic and other applications.

Plasma ALD (PE-ALD) allows for:

• Faster deposition rates and/or lower deposition temperatures.
• Improved film properties: density, adhesion and crystallinity.
• Compatibility with a broader range of precursors.
• Better control of thin film material properties (percent oxygen/nitrogen, etc..).
• Allows for the more efficient pre-cleaning of surfaces (oxygen plasma).
• Deposition of metals by using forming gas or hydrogen plasma.

MSE Supplies offers the Benchtop Plasma Atomic Layer Deposition System AT650P from Anric Technologies. 

The AT650P is the most cost-effective thermal ALD tool on the market with customizable chucks/platen. It is specially designed for simple operation and installation with a focus on research and development labs, where small size and cost effectiveness are the largest concerns.

AT650P has fast cycling capability (up to 1.2nm/min Al₂O₃) and high exposure, deep penetration processing available. It has smallest footprint on market, bench top installation and cleanroom compatible.
