Next-generation horizontal system for high-throughput 300 mm wafer processing

The centrotherm c.HORICOO 300 horizontal batch-type system is designed for 300 mm wafer processing with reliable performance in mass production. Based on centrotherm‘s extensive expertise in the semiconductor industry, c.HORICOO 300 is the new high-throughput platform for state-of-the-art wafer processing.

The heating element comprises 5 heating zones where each zone consits of two half shells that proved excellent temperature uniformity. The centrotherm Hydrox system supports wet oxidation processes with different moisture levels.

Temperatures up to 1200 °C allow faster oxidation and shorter drive-in processes.

The system is equipped with a modern touch operating HMI and factory-host coupling for MES connection. The latest CESAR II software enables a SEMI-compliant recipe management as well as remote control and maintenance.

The modular concept of c.HORICOO 300 also allows a single furnace 4-stack version or a cluster version with up to 8 tubes.
