What it is

The Applied Materials Endura 300 Aluminum Interconnect is a physical vapor deposition (PVD) system. The tool processes 300 mm (12 inch) wafers. The system is used for depositing aluminum interconnect layers.[1][2]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The Endura 300 Aluminum Interconnect sits in the back-end-of-line (BEOL) portion of semiconductor fabrication. The tool deposits aluminum films for metal interconnect layers after dielectric deposition. Upstream processes include via etching and cleaning. Downstream steps include photolithography and etching to pattern the metal lines.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

The system is used for depositing aluminum interconnect films in logic and memory devices. Aluminum metallization is applied for contact plugs, local interconnects, and bonding pads. The tool can also be used for other aluminum-based film requirements in BEOL processing.
