Product overview
This 8-inch ICP-DSE system is a mass-production etcher for high-aspect-ratio silicon processing. It integrates dual-frequency ICP power (2MHz+13.56MHz), our patented rapid gas switching module, and in-situ laser endpoint detection-with optimized Bosch alternating etching. Compliant with 8-inch wafer standards, it works with SOI, doped silicon, and SiC, enabling 10μm-1000μm precise etching. It balances R&D flexibility and mass-production stability, used in automotive sensors, super-junction MOSFETs, and TSVs.
Advantages
Excellent aspect ratio & profile control
100:1 ratio (10μm aperture, 1000μm depth) via improved Bosch process, with 90°±0.1° sidewall verticality, Ra 0.3μm roughness, and no "micro-trenches."
High mass-production efficiency
Up to 50μm/min etching rate (30+ wafers/hour per chamber). 3-chamber parallel design delivers 400 RF-h MTBC and 40% higher utilization. <1.0min gas switching and ±2% wafer-to-wafer error ensure batch consistency.
Low damage & high precision
Dual-frequency power offers >100:1 selectivity (vs SiO₂); 1μm laser endpoint accuracy, perfect for ultra-thin substrate TSV etching.
Wide adaptability
8-inch platform (6-inch compatible via carrier) with fast/slow Bosch mode. Supports Ar/O₂/C₄F₈/SF₆ for MEMS/power device processes.
Applicatios
MEMS: Deep trench/cavity etching for inertial/pressure sensors; automotive-grade verified.
Power Semiconductors: 100:1 aspect ratio etching for super-junction MOSFET/IGBT; used in high-reliability automotive/industrial devices.
Advanced Packaging: TSV etching for 8-inch WLP; laser detection ensures via depth uniformity for 3D stacking.
Special R&D: Etching for quantum chip silicon structures and inkjet printheads; one-click recipe storage for new materials.
