Gasonics AWD-D-3-8-005

Product Description: The Gasonics AWD-D-3-8-005 is a variation of the AWD-D-3-8 series, likely representing a specific hardware upgrade or a configuration optimized for advanced packaging applications. The “005” revision often implies enhanced RF power capabilities or specialized gas handling options compared to the “002” version.

Technical Specifications:

  • System Type: Advanced Dual-Chamber Decoupled Plasma Strip System

Detailed content

  • Wafer Size: 200mm (8-inch) and 300mm (12-inch) compatible configurations
  • RF Power: Enhanced 3000W – 5000W per chamber option
  • Gas Handling: Expanded gas box with up to 8 independent gas lines (including NF3 or specialized chemistries)
  • Pressure Control: High-precision throttle valve with wide dynamic range (1 mTorr to 5 Torr)
  • Cooling: Enhanced chiller system for high-power operation

Functional Features:

  • High-Density Plasma Option: Capable of generating higher radical densities for stripping very thick or hard-baked resists.
  • Advanced Endpoint Detection: Multi-wavelength optical emission spectroscopy for detecting complex strip endpoints.
  • SEC/GEM Compliance: Full factory automation interface for integration into modern fabs.
  • Remote Service Port: Allows for remote diagnostics by Gasonics service engineers.

Application Scenarios:

  • 3D NAND String Release: Stripping of thick sacrificial layers in 3D NAND structures.
  • Through-Silicon Vias (TSV): Deep via cleaning and resist removal for 3D packaging.
  • Fan-Out Packaging (FOWLP): Resist stripping on reconstituted wafers.
  • Power Device Manufacturing: Heavy metallization resist stripping.
