ALD equipment

ALD (atomic layer deposition) equipment builds films one atomic layer at a time by exposing the wafer to precursor gases in alternating, self-limiting steps. This gives precise thickness control and uniform coverage even on deep, narrow structures.

What it does


ALD is used for high-k gate dielectrics, spacers, liners and the films inside 3D NAND and DRAM capacitors. Tools come as single-wafer, batch and semi-batch systems.
