Design Services
We have extensive MEMS design and CAD capabilities including AutoCAD design of MEMS devices, photomask sets, and shadow mask sets. We also have expertise in the design of specialized substrate carriers, holders, fixtures, and accessories for use during semiconductor processing.


 

Lithography Services
We can perform NUV contact and near-proximity lithography on 4-inch and 6-inch wafers as well as substrates of various other shapes and sizes, with features as small as 1 micron. We have considerable experience with thick resist processes as well as the fabrication of shadow masks.


Magnetron Sputtering
Our multi-target sputtering system can deposit most metals, insulators and compound materials including in part: Aluminum, Copper, Gold, Titanium. Pulsed DC sputtering allows us to offer services for most oxides and nitrides. In-situ multi-target capability allows for the deposition of multilayers without breaking vacuum. 6” sputtering targets and rotating substrate holders maximize thin film uniformity.


Xenon difluoride etching
Our Xetch xenon difluoride etching system allows for the isotropic dry vacuum etching of silicon layers, including release layers, on substrates as large as 6” diameter, without the drawbacks associated with wet chemistry.


 

Reactive ion etching
Our multi channel STS etching system can accommodate substrates up to 12” diameter and can be used with most standard gas configurations including SF6 and CF4 and O2.

Plasma Ashing
Photoresist removal is accomplished by an oxygen plasma etch.


Wet etching
Verimetra's wet processing facilities include acid and solvent benches suitable for virtually any type of chemical cleaning or etching, including RCA cleans and the etching of oxides, nitrides, silicon and other semiconductors, and metals.
