Taking Technology to the Next Level
Tegal ProNova - Third generation of ICP
- This source was developed to reach the demand for the MEMS and 3D market, from 100 to 200 mm wafer size
- Yield is the key improvement by improving the uniformity across the wafer and by reducing the ion induced tilt at the wafer edge
- The ProNova source allows higher productivity and superior performance
