ICP Etch Process Capability
The Plasma-Therm Versaline ICP platform uses an inductively coupled plasma process module with independent RF hardware to provide a flexible plasma etch platform. The actual process capability depends on the installed chamber configuration, gas chemistry, RF configuration, wafer material, mask, feature geometry, and process recipe.
The installed BCl3 / Cl2 gas capability provides hardware for chlorine-based ICP etch process development, while SF6 provides fluorine-based etch capability. The additional O2, Ar, N2, and He gas lines provide flexibility for process development, plasma conditioning, dilution, and other compatible applications.
Customers should provide their substrate material, film/material to be etched, wafer size, mask material, target etch depth, feature dimensions, desired sidewall profile, and other critical process requirements so SemiStar can review the application against the actual system configuration.

Refurbished to OEM Specifications
SemiStar supplies this Plasma-Therm Versaline ICP Etcher in refurbished working condition to OEM specifications with its current system configuration. The objective of the refurbishment is to restore the equipment to proper operating condition while maintaining its original Plasma-Therm system architecture and installed configuration.
The refurbishment includes inspection and cleaning of the equipment; troubleshooting of electrical, mechanical, vacuum, RF, gas delivery, cooling, control, loadlock, and wafer-handling systems; repair or replacement of necessary components; vacuum system verification; RF generator testing; gas delivery and MFC testing; robot and loadlock operation testing; chiller verification; control system testing; and final functional testing.
Components will be repaired, refurbished, or replaced as necessary according to system condition and the final refurbishment scope. The completed system will be functionally tested prior to shipment.
Any customer-specific process testing, process qualification, or acceptance requirements must be defined separately in SemiStar’s official quotation.
Optional Installation and 6-Month Warranty
Installation is available as an optional service. SemiStar can provide equipment installation, startup, and functional verification at the end user’s facility according to the scope defined in the official quotation.
When the system is purchased with SemiStar installation, a 6-month warranty can be provided according to SemiStar’s warranty terms and the final quotation. Customer facility preparation, utilities, gases, exhaust, abatement, permits, and other site requirements remain the responsibility of the end user unless otherwise specifically included in the quotation.
Process and Application Review
Because ICP etch performance is application-specific, customers should provide detailed process requirements before ordering. Helpful information includes:
- Wafer / substrate material
- Wafer size
- Material or films to be etched
- Film thickness or target etch depth
- Mask material
- Minimum feature size
- Required sidewall profile
- Target etch rate
- Uniformity requirements
- Selectivity requirements
- Required process gases
- Other critical process requirements
SemiStar can review these requirements against the actual Versaline configuration before finalizing the equipment quotation.
