PLASMA ETCHING EQUIPMENT
METROLINE M4L PLASMA ETCHER
Equipment Configuration
This compact, user-friendly Plasma system is comprised of a single low density plasma chamber. The system is primarily used for ashing, and surface modifications. The system is configured with the following chemistries: Oxygen (O2),
Helium (He), and Freon 116 (C2F6). The system can be used to etch small samples through full 8-inch wafers.
