Spatial ALD, spatially isolated atomic layer deposition. The wafer moves between different positions and is exposed to different precursors at each position. The figure below is a comparison between traditional ALD and spatially isolated ALD.

Silicon carbide is one of the ideal materials for making high-temperature, high-frequency, high-power and high-voltage devices. In order to improve production efficiency and reduce costs, the preparation of large-size silicon carbide substrates is an important development direction.

According to overseas news, two sources revealed on June 24 that ByteDance is working with US chip design company Broadcom to develop an advanced artificial intelligence (AI) computing processor, which will help ByteDance ensure an adequate supply of high-end chips amid tensions between China and the United States.

Silicon carbide substrates have many defects and cannot be processed directly. A specific single crystal thin film needs to be grown on them through an epitaxial process to make chip wafers. This thin film is the epitaxial layer. Almost all silicon carbide devices are realized on epitaxial materials. High-quality silicon carbide homogeneous epitaxial materials are the basis for the development of silicon carbide devices. The performance of epitaxial materials directly determines the realization of the performance of silicon carbide devices.

This article mainly describes GaN-based low-temperature epitaxial technology, including the crystal structure of GaN-based materials, 3. epitaxial technology requirements and implementation solutions, the advantages of low-temperature epitaxial technology based on PVD principles, and the development prospects of low-temperature epitaxial technology.

In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, as device size continues to shrink, the deposition technology of thin film materials has posed unprecedented challenges. Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), as a thin film deposition technology that can achieve precise control at the atomic level, has become an indispensable part of semiconductor manufacturing. This article aims to introduce the process flow and principles of ALD to help understand its important role in advanced chip manufacturing.
