Magnetron sputtering system dedicated to transparent conducting oxides. ITO, ZnO and ZnO:Al targets installed.

 

Automatic processes for ITO, AZO, and ZnO are available. Up to 4 wafers can be deposited in a single batch. See process details for recommended conditions.

 

Substrates: Substrate carriers for substrates up to 150 mm in diameter, max. 3 mm thick.

ITO

ITO.tec Start by pressing ITO button.

1.2-1.6 sccm O2 recommended. 1.2sccm O2 gives about 250nm in 120s, sheet resistance about 30 Ohm/sq.

 

AZO

AZO.tec  Start by pressing AZO button

Recommended conditions: 0.4sccm O2, 600s gives about 200nm and 35 Ohm/sq (when the AZO target was moved to another posiiton, deposition rate dropped to about 50%, therefore, the deposition time is longer than before).

Conditioning may be necessary after a longer time when the process was not in use. 2x10 min seems to be enough, there is a program AZO_conditioning.tec that can be used (dummy deposition, no need to load substrates). 

 

ZnO: not installed
