Semiconductor applications

Dry etching

Plasma etch · Chamber support

Baffles, shields and optical-window candidates reviewed for their specific chamber position and exposure.

Process overview

Where the components fit

Etching removes selected material to form features in a semiconductor structure. Dry etching commonly uses plasma, and the process must control feature shape while limiting unwanted removal of other materials.

Chamber components have different exposure and interface requirements from the wafer itself. The existing WONIK product families include baffle and flow-control assemblies and quartz viewing-window candidates; each requires review of material, chamber location, surface requirements and customer qualification criteria.

  1. 01

    Define the etch environment

    The target material, plasma chemistry and chamber conditions establish the context for assessing exposed components.

  2. 02

    Locate the component

    Baffles, shields and viewing windows occupy different positions. Geometry, mounting datums and sealing edges must be defined for the intended role.

  3. 03

    Set the qualification requirements

    The customer defines acceptance for material, surfaces, dimensions and any required optical performance before tool qualification.

Before quotation

Define your application.

Plasma resistance, optical suitability and tool compatibility cannot be inferred from a quartz or silicon label. These product families are review candidates, and no unverified chamber compatibility or process-performance claim is implied.
