ATC Flagship Series Sputtering Systems

By AJA International

AJA International ATC Flagship Series Sputtering Systems are versatile PVD coating tools which can be built in a variety of configurations to satisfy most requirements. These systems are built around AJA's unique A300-XP (UHV) or Stiletto Series (HV) magnetron sputtering sources which feature in-situ source head tilting allowing precise and repeatable con-focal, direct, and off-axis thin film deposition. All systems include a heavy duty hoist to lift the chamber top for system access. Substrate holders with heating or cooling from 25mm to 300mm Ø are available on these machines. AJA magnetron sputter sources from 1"-12" Ø, plus rectangular, triangular and turret sputter sources can be incorporated. The maximum number of sputter sources will depend on the substrate size, configuration and magnetron sputter source size. For example, the ATC 1800 can be fitted with (5) 2" magnetrons with in-situ tilt. Consult the factory for optimum configuration. These versatile sputtering systems can be also fitted with other deposition sources(e-beam evaporation, thermal evaporation and PLD), ion sources, facing target sputtering sources (FTS), contact masking systems, metal-sealed tops, bake jackets, glove boxes, cassettes, auto-loading and analytical tools (RHEED, XPS, Auger, RGA, Ellipsometers and MOS). LabVIEW based computer control and either turbomolecular or cryopumping are utilized depending on the application. ATC Flagship Systems can also be easily connected to each other or to ATC Orion Systems for multi-chamber (e.g. metal/oxide) or multi-technique (e.g. sputter/e-beam evaporation/thermal evaporation/PLD/ion milling/analytical) configurations.
