The Veeco E 400 MOCVD Reactor is a metal organic chemical vapor deposition system. The Veeco E 400 MOCVD Reactor is categorized as Deposition equipment in the semiconductor tool taxonomy.[1][2]
What it is
The Veeco E 400 is a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) reactor used for depositing thin films.[1][2]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedMOCVD reactors operate by introducing metal-organic and hydride precursor vapors into a reaction chamber using a carrier gas. The substrate is heated to a temperature that drives the thermal decomposition of the precursors, leading to epitaxial growth of the desired material. Excess byproducts are removed by the carrier gas flow.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedMOCVD systems are typically positioned after substrate cleaning and before photolithography and etching steps in a compound semiconductor fabrication line. The tool deposits epitaxial layers that form the active region of devices such as LEDs, laser diodes, and high-electron-mobility transistors.
Upstream steps include substrate preparation and loading; downstream steps often involve contact formation, passivation, and device isolation.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedCommon application areas for MOCVD-grown films include light-emitting diodes, laser diodes, solar cells, and heterojunction bipolar transistors.
