VF-5300H Vertical Furnace for Gate Insulating Film Formation

A vertical furnace enabling high-temperature processing, ideal for power device manufacturing. Supports oxynitriding and wafers of up to 8 inches in size. Features an automatic wafer transfer mechanism, and can be used for mass production.

Features

  • Supports max. 100 wafers (200mm / 8-inch,
    150mm / 6-inch), and use on mass-production lines.
  • Supports a wide range of wafer sizes up to 8 inches.
  • Enables temperature monitoring in wafer vicinity.
  • The furnace interior features our proprietary metal-free construction.
  • Supports serial processing of different oxidizing/oxynitriding processes (wet/dry oxidizing, H2 annealing, NH3 nitriding, NO/N2O oxynitriding).
  • Chamber cleaning mechanism (option)

Overview

VF-5300H is a vertical furnace that can process a maximum of 100 wafers per lot, and a wide range of wafer sizes from 3 to 8 inches. Carefully selected hardware and control system features enable use on mass-production lines. The furnace interior features our proprietary metal-free construction. VF-5300H enables high-temperature processing, making it ideal for power device manufacturing. It can also perform oxynitriding.
