The IoN Wave 10 plasma system is our latest advancement in microwave plasma possessing. This low cost, mid-sized wafer batch asher is designed with advanced features and targets the needs of small scale foundries, universities and start-up companies.

The IoN Wave 10 is equipped with new, state of the art components and software to precisely control processing parameters.  Its process monitoring and data capturing software allows for the most stringent quality controls available. This technology has been successfully used for power transistors, analog devices, sensors, optical devices, photonics, MEMS/MOEMS, bio devices, etc.

The small footprint of the IoN Wave 10 requires minimal laboratory space and provides for simple installation and maintenance. Using microwave plasma technology, this system produces high photoresist ashing rates with minimal exposure to electro static discharge (ESD).

Features Include:

  •  Small foot print tabletop design
  •  A quartz chamber accommodating 2”– 8” wafers
       and quartz boats carrying up to (25), 6” inch wafers
  • Industrial computer with a Windows® based system
  • Graphical User Interface (GUI) software complies with Semi E95-1101
  • User access control for separate process development,
       operator and maintenance programming and control
  • Configurable process tolerance controls allowing precise lot-to-lot repeatability
  • Remote statistical process control monitoring via Ethernet
  • Onboard diagnostic features and alarm logging
  • Recipe editor offers fast and versatile step control functionality
  • 10.4” Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) touch panel and keyboard
  •  Recipe editor simulator software
  •  Online Web based simulation, training and support program
  • Plug and play installation

Typical applications:

  •  Photo-resist stripping
  •  Wafer descum
  •  Wafer cleaning prior to wet etching
  •  SU-8 removal
  •  Etching of passivation layers
  •  Device decapsulation for failure analysis
  •  Cleaning and surface activation
  •  Low temperature ashing of materials for chemical trace analysis
  • Cleaning of filters and membranes
