What it is

The CHA SE 600 RAP is an electron-beam evaporator manufactured by CHA.[1][2][3][4]

How it works

The SE 600 RAP model is designed for deposition of thin films in semiconductor and related applications. The machine uses an electron-beam source for material evaporation, typical of CHA's evaporator product line.[1][2][3][4]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

In a semiconductor manufacturing flow, electron-beam evaporation is used as a physical vapor deposition step for forming thin metal or dielectric layers. The process typically follows substrate cleaning and precedes lithography and etch patterning steps.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Electron-beam evaporators are used to deposit a wide range of materials, including metals such as aluminum, copper, gold, and titanium, as well as dielectrics like silicon dioxide and transparent conductive oxides.

Frequently asked questions

What materials can be deposited using an e-beam evaporator?General reference — not yet source-verified

E-beam evaporators can deposit a wide range of materials, including most metals (e.g., aluminum, gold, copper, titanium), refractory metals (e.g., tungsten, molybdenum), dielectrics (e.g., silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide), and certain compounds. The main requirement is that the material can be heated to its vaporization temperature without decomposing.

How does thickness control work in e-beam deposition?General reference — not yet source-verified

Thickness control is typically achieved with a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) that measures the mass of deposited material in real time. The QCM signal is used to adjust the electron beam power or shutter timing to reach the desired film thickness. Some systems also use optical monitoring for transparent films.

Can e-beam deposition be used for compound or alloy films?General reference — not yet source-verified

Yes, but care is needed because different elements may evaporate at different rates (congruent evaporation). For alloys, co-evaporation from multiple sources or using a single source with a well-controlled composition can produce films with the desired stoichiometry. Alternatively, flash evaporation or electron-beam heating of a pre-mixed source can be employed.
