Deposition Technology Evaporation puttering PECVD ALD Thin Film Deposition Technologies Description Pros Cons Formation of a film by the boiling or sublimation of a source material followed by condensation on a target substrate. Ejection of atoms from a target material via momentum transfer of bombarding ions to the surface of the target. Deposition of thin-films from a gas state via the reaction of chemical constituents within a reactive plasma. Gas phase deposition which breaks the chemical formation of thin films into two discrete half reactions. Wide range of materials. Very good for metal and organic deposition. Fast, low temperature deposition possible. Wide range of multicomponent materials. Excellent control of stochiometry. High deposition rates (esp. with elevated T) Exceptional thickness control and step coverage. Process T as low as ambient. Dissimilar materials may require markedly varying source technology. Potential for ion damage of underlying films. Requires specialized precursor materials. Control of film density at low T problematic. Low deposition rate. eshan, K. (2002).
