Helios


MattsonTechnology’s new Helios 300 mm RTP system features an advanced model-based temperature control that provides exceptional uniformity, repeatability and reliability. The system’s outstanding spike anneal performance, with rapid ramp and cool-down rates, provides the precise process control required for ultra-shallow junction formation. The Helios’ low-temperature control capability enables processing at steady-state temperatures down to 250°C and provides superior temperature uniformity across the wafer, outperfoming next-generation NiSi formation requirements.

Built on a modular, dual-chamber platform designed for ease of maintenance and high reliability, the Helios includes a dual-arm robot for increased throughput (over 120 wafers per hour). The system also features a contactless guard ring that entirely surrounds the wafer to eliminate edge effects, thus providing 0 slip line generation during processing.

The Helios’ excellent thermal processing performance and temperature control, high productivity and small footprint offer significant cost-of-ownership advantages, making it the ideal solution for chipmakers seeking a robust, cost-effective RTP system to address the most demanding processing applications for 90 nm and 65 nm device development and production.
