Provisional entry — research in progress
This page was generated automatically from cited public sources and hasn't completed the full research pass yet. Every specification shown carries its source; more detail is added as research completes.
What it is
The Applied Materials DPS 2 532 is a metal etcher.[1]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe decoupled design separates ion generation from the biasing of the wafer to allow independent control of etch rate and profile.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe etcher typically follows metal deposition and photolithography steps and precedes resist stripping and cleaning operations.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe tool can also etch barrier and adhesion layers such as titanium nitride or titanium tungsten.
