BTE-PECVD: Enhanced Plasma-Enhanced CVD System for Advanced Thin Film Growth

Overview

إن BTE-PECVD is a state-of-the-art single-zone plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) system developed for high-precision, low-temperature thin film growth in research and industrial laboratories. Designed with an integrated RF power supply, heating system, multi-channel gas mixing unit, and vacuum control, this tube furnace-based PECVD system enables the synthesis of high-quality nanostructures such as nanowires, graphene, SiC films, and other functional materials under controlled plasma conditions.

Ideal for materials science, semiconductor research, and nanotechnology applications, the BTE-PECVD offers exceptional film uniformity, fast processing speed, and excellent process repeatability—making it a powerful tool for both academic exploration and pilot-scale production.

How It Works: Principle of PECVD

Unlike conventional thermal CVD, which relies solely on high temperature to activate chemical reactions, PECVD uses radio frequency (RF) plasma to generate reactive species at lower temperatures (typically 200–800°C). This allows:

• Lower deposition temperature: Enables processing of heat-sensitive substrates like polymers or flexible electronics.
• Higher deposition rate: Plasma enhances reaction kinetics, increasing film growth speed.
• Improved step coverage: Uniform deposition even on complex geometries.

In the BTE-PECVD system:

1. Precursor gases (e.g., SiH₄, CH₄, NH₃) are introduced into the vacuum chamber.
2. RF power (13.56 MHz) ionizes the gas mixture, creating a plasma rich in ions, radicals, and excited species.
3. These reactive species deposit on the substrate surface, forming a thin film.
4. The process is precisely controlled via temperature, pressure, gas flow, and RF power.
